Ok, I decided to move from nroff to LaTeX. I bough Lamport's book. I wrote
this file testit.tex:
\begin{document}
Hi there!
\end{document}
I then typed %latex testit.tex and got the following error log:

I don't know what's going on and I wish someone would help me. I'm running
on a vax-8700, if that tells anyone anything.
Sorry to be so boring, thanks for any help.eliot@phoenix.Princeton.EDU (Eliot Handelman) (10/16/89)
