Macro package on top of [TeX], written by Leslie Lamport (initially), that makes it much easier for most people to produce extremely high-quality typeset TeX documents.  Has a huge number of extension packages that allow it to do things from reports to presentations to crosswords.

[MC] 2005-12-29: I've typeset a couple of books now and find that I get a lot of mileage out of getting my content into an [XML] format and then writing a [Tcl] script (making use of [tDOM]) to transform that into LaTeX.  This allows me to easily experiment with LaTeX markup and LaTeX packages (since I've still got ''a lot''  to learn) with minimal pain.
