And eventually from Amazon arrived the Latex Companion...
I leafed through it and have to say it seems a wonderful book. There's plenty of information (in my opinion more than other book on Latex like the "Guide to latex" or Lamport's book -- that seems more suited to a beginner latex user).
In fact I was spending too much time on the web to look for information on intermediate or advanced tasks, and I was also thinking to abandon latex in favor of something else (by the way, I didn't find a true candidate, a part from docbook). Thanks to Andrea Bergia (I didn't find his proper blog/website) for pointing me the listings package that solving one of my immediate problems made me understand that it wasn't latex not being suited for what I had to do: it was me who needed to learn more latex.
