TeX is one of those programs (like a good C compiler) that you just DON'T
want to program yourself unless you absolutely have to.  That is, if you
value your time.  And the Amiga TeX implementation is EXTREMELY good.  I
have worked with it a little, and friends of mine have worked with it a 
lot.  The Amiga version is also cheaper than any other version that I know
of. 

I have no connection with Tom Rockicki (the author of AmigaTeX) except that
I am soon to be a customer of his.
