All of the other posts were very good and I'm certain you'll find them  
helpful.

The short answer is LaTeX is a compleat (and complex) toolchain made  
up of a markup definition implemented as macros for the TeX  
typesetting tool for which specialized editors exist which are  
supported by a myriad of special-purpose utilities.

You may also find of interest a graphical front-end called LyX:

This also makes LaTeX very easy to install on Windows and affords one  
the option of directly entering raw TeX or LaTeX code at need.
