+.SH NAME
+latex, elatex, lambda, pdflatex \- structured text formatting and typesetting
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B latex
+[ first line ]
+.\"=====================================================================
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive.  The complete
+documentation for this version of \*(TX can be found in the info file
+or manual
+.IR "Web2C: A TeX implementation" .
+.PP
+The \*(LX language is described in the book
+.IR "\*(LX \- A Document Preparation System" .
+\*(LX is a \*(TX macro package, not a modification to the \*(TX source
+program, so all the capabilities described in
+.BR tex (1)
+are present.
+.PP
+The \*(LX macros encourage writers to think about the content of their
+documents, rather than the form.  The ideal, very difficult to realize, is to
+have no formatting commands (like ``switch to italic'' or ``skip 2
+picas'') in the document at all; instead, everything is done
+by specific markup instructions: ``emphasize'', ``start a section''.
+.PP
+The primary source of documentation for \*(LX is the \*(LX manual 
+referenced below, and the local guide in the file
+.I local-guide.tex 
+or 
+.I local.tex
+or some such.
+.PP
+.B elatex
+is the e-\*(TX extended mode version of \*(LX format.
+.PP
+.B lambda
+is the Omega version of the \*(LX format.
+.PP
+.B pdflatex
+is the pdf\*(TX version of the \*(LX format.
+.PP
+On some systems
+.B latex209
+and
+.B slitex
+are available for compatibility with older versions of \*(LX.  These
+should not be used for new texts.
