[B-Greek] [XeTeX] Where to Start (or LaTeX for theologians)

Those here interested in an alternative to working with texts using 
conventional word processors might want to take a look at LaTeX, a 
free multi-platform program that takes marked-up plain text and turns 
it into beautiful .pdf output. Although its principal use has 
traditionally been in mathematics and the physical sciences, it's 
made inroads in the humanities and when combined with the text 
processing engine XeTeX is particularly useful for working with 
non-Latin scripts, including those written right-to-left.

This new blog, just announced on the XeTeX list, is a good place to 
start investigating.

For those interested I have started a blog on using
LaTeX in Theology (http://theotex.blogspot.com/). The
blog is still a work in progress. Since I am not a
LaTeX expert, any correction is welcome.
