I just saw it now there. CTAN is an infinite bazaar :-)

By the way, in CTAN there is also the /TeX for the Impatient/ book (I
love that title), which is a very good manual for programming at low
level in TeX/plainTeX: https://www.ctan.org/pkg/impatient (it's more
concise than Knuth's /TeX book/, which I bought on paper a long time
ago, for 'historical' reasons...)

Best regards,

Juan Manuel

As an arch user, just confirming. For what it's worth, the way to find
the package's "home base" is in the  upstream url, which is as Eric
says.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/latex2e-help-texinfo/

Upstream URL: https://ctan.org/pkg/latex2e-help-texinfo

It's in CTAN, the official (?) LaTeX repository.

Thank you very much for this information, I did not know it. I just saw
that there is a `latex2e-help-texinfo' package in my distro (Arch), not in
the official repositories but in the AUR. Very useful.

Hi,

I think it may be useful for a quick LaTeX query. You could even 
use

org-ql and define a function like this:

(require 'org-ql)
(defun my-latex-apropos ()

  (let ((regexp (if (not (current-word t t))
(read-from-minibuffer "Find (regexp): ")
  (read-from-minibuffer "Find: " (current-word t t)
(org-ql-search
  "/path-to/latexreference.org"
  `(regexp ,regexp

Best regards,

Juan Manuel 


Such a handy utility!  Thanks for sharing.

All the best,
Tom

There is also a latex2e.info package 'out there'. I have it installed
from my Linux distro and find being able to run (info)Latex very useful
as a basic reference.
