Abstract :
Spoken tutorials are a technique to create powerful documentation on software packages. This approach is especially useful for free or open source software. It is explained through the development of several spoken tutorials on LaTeX. The main advantage of this method is that no special infrastructure is required and hence it lends to collaborative document development.
