If you're using windoze you might want to look at MiKTeX, which can automatically download packages as you need them.

In my head I also ".kp on" and ".kp off" around sections I want to keep together on one page, and I think of the simple .fnot macro I wrote so I could dump footnotes about a new term without distracting myself. This has been a productive thread for me :-) I've been playing with LaTeX (have we aegued about how to pronounce that, yet? ;-) ) and used \documentclass[12pt, a4paper]{article} and {book} to play a bit. So far, {article} doesn't do a TOC and {book} lays it out like, well, a book. I've got hyperlinks in blue, matrices and other maths stuff, paragraphs with no indent and monospaced code examples using \verbatim. Installed 'texlive' on Linux Mint and TeXworks on Windows and it all seems to work pretty well :-) So thanks for a good thread.
