          Chapter 2 

          Version 1.1, 9/7/92 


         1. LameTeX now handles the \ ref and\label commands. 

         2. LameTeX now has a -t option  to allow you to format LaTeX 
            files  in  raw  ASCII  format  (suitable  for  posting to 
            UseNet, for example). 

         3. LameTeX now  handles the  comamnds \ part*,\chapter*,\ 
            section*,\subsection*,\subsubsection*,\paragraph*, 
            and\subparagraph* 

         4. Took the 10pt  option out all  commands \ documentstyle [ 
            10pt ] report  , which causes a  problem with real LaTeX, 
            not LameTeX! 

         5. Added \ input command. 

         6. Fixed  bug  where  temporary  SNARF  .tex  file  had  a \ 
            documentstyle [  10pt ]  which caused  problems with some 
            versions of LaTeX.
