    Summary: The TeX text formatting system
    Description: 
    teTeX is an implementation of TeX for Linux or UNIX systems.  TeX takes
    a text file and a set of formatting commands as input and creates a
    typesetter independent .dvi (DeVice Independent) file as output.  Usually,
    TeX is used in conjunction with a higher level formatting package like
    LaTeX or PlainTeX, since TeX by itself is not very user-friendly.
    
    Install teTeX if you want to use the TeX text formatting system.  If you
    are installing teTeX, you would probably also need to install tetex-afm (a
    PostScript(TM) font converter for TeX), tetex-dvilj (for converting .dvi
    files to HP PCL format for printing on HP and HP compatible printers),
    tetex-dvips (for converting .dvi files to PostScript format for printing
    on PostScript printers), tetex-latex (a higher level formatting package
    which provides an easier-to-use interface for TeX) and tetex-xdvi (for
    previewing .dvi files in X).  Unless you're an expert at using TeX,
    you'll also want to install the tetex-doc package, which includes the
    documentation for TeX.
