+.B slitex
+.IR file [.tex]

+.I auxname
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Latex
+is a standard set of macros for
+.IR tex (1)
+inspired by, but not identical to, Scribe.
+The command
+.I "latex file"
+processes
+.IB file .tex
+and produces
+.IB file .dvi,
+which should be printed with
+.IR lp (1).
+It will probably be necessary to run
+.I latex
+twice, to get all of the cross-referencing done properly.
+.I Latex
+writes cross-referencing information in
+.IB file .aux.
+.I Slitex
+is version of
+.I latex
+for making slides.
+.PP
+.I Bibtex
+reads the top-level auxiliary
+.RB ( .aux )
+file output by
+.I latex
+and creates a bibliography
+.RB ( .bbl )
+file to be included in the
+source file.
+The
+.I auxname
+on the command line should be given without an extension.
+Each
+.B \ecite
+in the source file is looked up in bibliography files to gather
+together those used in the document.
+Then a bibliography style file is executed to write a
+.B \ethebibliography
+environment.
+.PP
+The source file should have defined the bibliography
+.RB ( .bib )
+files to search with the
+.B \ebibliography
+command, and the bibliography style
+.RB ( .bst )
+file to execute with the
+.B \ebibliographystyle
+command.
+.I Bibtex
+searches the
+.B TEXINPUTS
+path (see
+.IR tex (1))
+for
+.BR .bst
+files, and the
+.B BIBINPUTS
+path for
+.B .bst
+files.
+The manual describes how to make bibliography files.
+.PP
+See files in
+.L /usr/lib/tex/macros/doc
+for more documentation.
+In particular,
+.L local.tex
+is the
+.I "Local Guide"
+referred to in the manual.
