The videos are all extremely useful and enjoyable. Too bad they are not 
available in OGG format.

I have one suggestion that simplifies the processing of the LaTeX output 
files. Install AUCTeX (http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/). Then you 
can stay in Emacs to do the processing. How? Open foo.tex in a buffer, 
and type in "C-c C-c latex" to process the file. If you want to view the 
 PDF output, type "C-c C-v". I sometimes wish that AUCTeX was included 
in the Emacs distribution.
