NAME
     amstex - structured text formatting and typesetting

SYNOPSIS
     amstex [ first line ]

DESCRIPTION
     This manual page is not meant to be  exhaustive.   The  com-
     plete  documentation for this version of TeX can be found in
     the info file or manual Web2C: A TeX implementation.

     The AmSTeX language is described in the book The Joy of TeX.
     AmSTeX is a TeX macro package, not a modification to the TeX
     source program, so all the capabilities described in  tex(1)
     are present.

     The AmSTeX macros encourage writers to think about the  con-
     tent  of  their documents, rather than the form.  The ideal,
     not always realized, is to have no formatting commands (like
     ``switch to italic'' or ``skip 2 picas'') in the document at
     all; instead, everything is done by specific markup instruc-
     tions: ``emphasize'', ``start a section''.

     AmSTeX is the official typesetting system  of  the  American
     Mathematical Society, and nearly all of its publications are
     typeset using  AmSTeX.   The  online  version  of  AMS  Math
     Reviews uses AmSTeX input syntax for display of mathematical
     material.  AMS authors can provide  editors  with  computer-
     readable AmSTeX files.

     For authors more familiar with LaTeX, an AMS-supported pack-
     age called amsmath.sty is is available.
