After I learned how to do it I never went back to a word processor.

A good place to get started is:

The learning curve is of course much steeper than a word processor, but I 
think it's well worth it.
Hope that helps.

I'm wondering if this package would be appropriate for things like essays, with fairly specific formatting requirements.  (I could always use a Windows word processor to do the same, but I get less feedback with those than I feel comfortable with.)
