[Blindmath] How Too for LaTeX and MathML?

[Michael Whapples]

One resource I do find useful for LaTeX is the LaTeX wikibook 
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX. However I did start using that 
wikibook once I knew some LaTeX (normally I was using it to learn about 
new packages), so I do not know what it is like for a beginner.

Many say about the not so short introduction to LaTeX 
http://tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf

As for learning MathML, I am sure you do not quite mean that. If you 
want to learn MathML then probably the W3 specification is where one 
would start and I believe Design Science have a few good articles as 
well. However normally one would always work through some other software 
when using MathML. So what do you want to do with MathML and then 
suitable software could be suggested.
