I am fairly new to orgmode and I have just begun trying to use source 
code blocks.  I have a simple question that is not made clear in the 
Orgmode Manual.

The manual states that to insert an Easy Template for a source code 
block, use:
 

`<<>' `<s>' `<TAB>' 


and then
 

`<' `l' `<TAB>' 


to label it for LaTeX.  But I cannot find anywhere in the manual where 
the `<<>' is explained.  The section on typographical conventions says 
nothing about this.

Can someone tell exactly what to type to insert a template for, say, 
LaTeX or emacs-lisp?

Thanks, Bill
