Dear Eric - I love the idea of a TeX/LaTeX demo - and also the idea
of a GIMP demo. If you decide to do either of these, I will publicize
the meetings on the NCMUG mailing list. The Mac people are mostly
unaware that with the new OSX they can do this! We ought to get a few
of the geeky types in NCMUG over to some of our meetings on shell, and
other tools available to them. -Grandma
