Hi all, This may sound very trivial, but can some point me towards a good source to get a tex compiler. I am new to the tex format, but have used it in uni and found it to be a good tool. I am looking to install it uner a windows environment, so i would appreciate any advice. I have been to the miktex website and got to the download version 2.0 page. It seems to be asking me to download numerous zip files(6). There don't seem to be any instructions and i'm a little confused by it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated Abu
