README for latex2e.texi, aka the latex2e-help-texinfo package.
This README file originally written 2008, Karl Berry.

This project is an attempt to write a reference manual for core LaTeX.
It is unofficial and the LaTeX Project members have not reviewed it.

The manual is available here, with one web page per section:
  https://latexref.xyz/
We also have a single-page version:
  http://latexref.xyz/dev/latex2e.html

More information is at https://latexref.xyz/dev/, including links to the
current output in various formats, sources, mailing lists, and other
infrastructure. The project page for repository access, etc.:
https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/projects/latexrefman/

Help is most definitely wanted.  Search for "xx" in the source for just
a few deficiencies.  Background at https://latexref.xyz/dev/writing.html.

Please email any bug reports, new material, general discussion, whatever,
to latexrefman@tug.org (see https://lists.tug.org/latexrefman for archives
and subscription via the web). It is not necessary to subscribe to post.

It would be great to see the manual expanded to cover more of the
LaTeX2e commands, not to mention expl3 and other current developments,
but the current maintainers just cannot devote sufficient time to make
that happen. Interested volunteers are needed.

License: the manual is released under the old-style GNU documentation
license, because that is what the original authors used. (It was the
recommended license at the time.) This README file and other
supplementary files are public domain.
