Yes, agreed. I'm a "techie" and *much* appreciate the facility of being able to
work on the same document, with the same text formatter, on two different
machines (U**x workstation & 1040ST). There are some aspects of LaTeX which
cause extreme grief, but there are usually ways around them.

My thanks to those Atarians who have been involved in getting TeX, LaTeX,
BibTeX, the dvi previewers, the dvi drivers and the fonts up and running on STs
- it has been one the *major* benefits of buying an ST. Thanks again.

By the way, is it possible to use TeX and its associated programs on a 0.5 meg
520ST? Or is my only recourse to expand the memory? If so how much is 
comfortably enough? I think I can afford another .5 meg but 2 more meg
would be stretching it some.

I only have 1meg and am able to LaTeX my 100 page Thesi(LaTeX only works
on one page in memory at a time), preview it, and print it out on my
Deskjet at 300dpi, run BibTeX on it, all with 1 Meg!  A hard-drive is a
requirement.
