The file of the paper is called document.tex. This is the file to edit
when you are writing the paper.

This is how you write a document in latex:

* edit the tex-file in an editor such as emacs
* convert tex-file into a viewable dvi-file using the shell command:

  "latex document.tex" 

  => generates dvi-file document.dvi

* view document saying "xdvi document.dvi" or "xdvi document"

* once you are happy with the document, convert the dvi-file to 
  a ps-file with 

  "dvips -o document.ps document.dvi"

  => generates ps-file document.ps


For editing the tex-file, it is advisable to use a latex-manual. Apart
from dedicated books, there are a number of good online-manuals, for example at
