maybe. but can you think of any program with source code you could
read more easily? the source of TeX is small, by todays standards,
available in nicely printed books in the shop, is well documented and
cross-referenced, acknowledged to be bug free for all intents and purposes,
and written by one of the foremost authorities on computer programming.
