The computer program AmigaTeX is a port of Knuth's typesetting program TeX[1], which was originally written in WEB. To create AmigaTeX, that source was translated to C by Tomas Rokicki. This manual translation was necessary because of the lack of a suitable Pascal compiler for the Amiga computer. When development of AmigaTeX commenced, WEB depended on Pascal and Web2c was not yet an available alternative.
Features

- LaTeX[1]
- ARexx port for example with CygnusEd[1][2]
- Preview[1][3][4]
