Get LaTeX running and install an editor and extra tools with only a few effort. The full power of typesetting with LaTeX, right in front of you.

If you’re running Linux, you can find the texlive package in most repositories. Afterwards you can use any text editor to follow along and compile the .tex files with the command line tool pdflatex.  Graphical editor like Kile is a good one, but it requires the KDE libraries and Qt to be installed.
