Message-ID: <16471@sdcc6.ucsd.edu> Date: 8 Feb 91 20:04:24 GMT Sender: news@sdcc6.ucsd.edu Organization: CSE Dept., UC San Diego Lines: 13 Nntp-Posting-Host: odin.ucsd.edu I've got the unix tex 3.0 distribution source, but after skimming through the TeXdoc directory and the Man-pages directory, I have no idea what tex 3.0 is, how it differs from the tex82 I've been using, or why I should even install it (well, I imagine it's been tuned up, but what else?) Can anyone give me a brief description of what's different, especially as seen by the end user? Or is there some documentation somewhere that I don't know about? Thanks a lot.
