LAT is NOT a mature product. The documentation is now included with the
DECserver software distribution. I have heard nothing to indicate that LAT
will not be distributed with VMS in the future, but since it is on a separate
development cycle, it may wind up needing the documentation from the DECserver
distribution.

The TECO manual has never had a real home. DEC has never wanted it in VMS
and they mostly try to ignore it. Just stick it in your binder with all
of the other editors, I guess.
