Hi,
The TeXstudio editor includes a comprehensive LaTeX reference guide in
HTML
(https://github.com/texstudio-org/texstudio/blob/master/utilities/latexhelp.html).
I have converted it to Org with Pandoc (and then cleaned it up and fixed
some broken links). It can be downloaded here:
https://cloud.disroot.org/s/krGSf7TmFZRiyZL
I think it may be useful for a quick LaTeX query. You could even use
org-ql and define a function like this:
(require 'org-ql)
(defun my-latex-apropos ()
(interactive)
(let ((regexp (if (not (current-word t t))
(read-from-minibuffer "Find (regexp): ")
(read-from-minibuffer "Find: " (current-word t t)))))
(org-ql-search
"/path-to/latexreference.org"
`(regexp ,regexp))))
Best regards,
Juan Manuel

There is also a latex2e.info package 'out there'. I have it installed
from my Linux distro and find being able to run (info)Latex very useful
as a basic reference.

Thank you very much for this information, I did not know it. I just saw
that there is a `latex2e-help-texinfo' package in my distro (Arch), not in
the official repositories but in the AUR. Very useful.
Best regards,
Juan Manuel

It's in CTAN, the official (?) LaTeX repository.

As an arch user, just confirming. For what it's worth, the way to find
the package's "home base" is in the upstream url, which is as Eric
says.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/latex2e-help-texinfo/
"""
Upstream URL: https://ctan.org/pkg/latex2e-help-texinfo

I just saw it now there. CTAN is an infinite bazaar :-)
By the way, in CTAN there is also the /TeX for the Impatient/ book (I
love that title), which is a very good manual for programming at low
level in TeX/plainTeX: https://www.ctan.org/pkg/impatient (it's more
concise than Knuth's /TeX book/, which I bought on paper a long time
ago, for 'historical' reasons...)
Best regards,
Juan Manuel
