If you are using Microsoft Windows I recommend using MikTeX with an editor like TeXnicCenter, WinEdt, Emacs for Windows or WinShell. If you are using a Unix compatible system, then you should look in the documentation of your system for the easiest way to obtain LaTeX (e.g. in Kubuntu LaTeX is obtained by installing the packages texlive-base, texlive-common and texlive-doc-base using synaptic). You can also obtain LaTeX from http://www.tug.org/texlive/. A dvi-viewer named xdvi is present in the distribution (or, alternatively, you can use okular if you have KDE). Under Linux you can use the following editors: Kile or Kate (for KDE), Texmaker, NEdit or Emacs (if you don't use KDE). The typesetting commands are explained in: Typesetting Commands for LaTeX.

In the page "TeX Tricks" a lot of (La)TeX tricks can be found. Each title explains what the code below it can do.
I designed several scripts (most of them only useable in a UNIX- or Linux-environment) that automatize some procedures commonly done by a (La)TeX user. You can find these scripts at the "TeX Scripts" page.
