The problem is, I have scores (a lot!) of files in plain TeX that I have been produced over the years, by me, and/or shamelessly borrowed from more skilled programmers; an example: code that produces a set of problems with hints and answers, so that the hints and the answers are afterwards printed separately. Even more basic things, like matrix commands (\pmatrix{…} and the like) are not recognized by LaTeX, and are not easily translatable. So, I am still struggling with plain TeX.


1. If I can handle LaTeX, which I do with a lot of help, anyone can.

2. Re. "set of problems with hints and answers, so that the hints and the answers are afterwards printed separately" By now, there are quite a number of packages out there that do that sort of things.
