\section{Commands}

This paragraph illustrates some ``commands''.  Many
\LaTeX\ commands start with a \\ I mean $\backslash$ character.
Others involve 1--2 
special characters that rarely appear in print.  Natually\,,
this \underline{paragraph} is a bit contrived. \vspace{1 cm}

Some commands are {\it unusual} llama {\it unusual\/} llama, and
obscure.  Others \today are pretty straightforward.  An\"{o}ther l\'{a}rge
class of commands has to do with ac\c{c}ents.  Still another important
class has to do with controlling page breaks. \newpage

\section{Declarations}

Many {\em declarations have to do with \Large typefaces}.  You can
{\sc control} {\tiny the} {\Huge size} and {\sf font}.  Declarations
all have a scope associated with them.  The easiest way to mark a
scope is with the \{ and \} characters.

Another option is to use the {\tt $\backslash$begin\{{\it
environment}\}} and {\tt $\backslash$end\{{\it environment}\}}
commands.

\section{Environments}

\begin{itemize}
\item The {\em itemize} environment is for lists

\item The {\em quote} environment is for short quotes while the {\em
quotation} environment is for multi-paragraph quotes.

	\begin{enumerate}
	\item The {\em math} and {\em theorem} enviroments are important.

	\item The {\em center} environment is particularly handy.
	\end{enumerate}

\end{itemize}
