If you don't know about UNIX manual pages, you're missing out on a lot. Try typing
man latex into your shell. Manual pages should be available for quite a few different commands, utilities, functions, shells, protocols, and system calls. You can also access manual pages on unix.com through the 'man' link in the top bar, though as it turns out, not for latex.

amstex
AMSTEX(1) General Commands Manual AMSTEX(1)
NAME
amstex - structured text formatting and typesetting
SYNOPSIS
amstex [ first line ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual
Web2C: A TeX implementation.
The AmSTeX language is described in the book The Joy of TeX. AmSTeX is a TeX macro package, not a modification to the TeX source program,
so all the capabilities described in tex(1) are present.
The AmSTeX macros encourage writers to think about the content of their documents, rather than the form. The ideal, not always realized,
is to have no formatting commands (like ``switch to italic'' or ``skip 2 picas'') in the document at all; instead, everything is done by
specific markup instructions: ``emphasize'', ``start a section''.
AmSTeX is the official typesetting system of the American Mathematical Society, and nearly all of its publications are typeset using AmS-
TeX. The online version of AMS Math Reviews uses AmSTeX input syntax for display of mathematical material. AMS authors can provide edi-
tors with computer-readable AmSTeX files.
For authors more familiar with LaTeX, an AMS-supported package called amsmath.sty is is available.
