	How does one pronounce the term "TeX."  There seem to be two
factions, one that says it's like TEK and another that says it's TEX
as in TEXas or TEXt.  If it's TEK howcome it's pronounced that way; I
can't think of any english words that sound X that way.  Also it would
seem more reasonable to say LATEX than LATEK.  Just curious.
