Yup. And if you use a Makefile to build the book the same way you build a program, you always know everything is up-to-date.

Yup. Of course it has to be gnumake, too.

If you are going to organize all that, why not use Texinfo up front, and postpone the output format decision as far as possible. Maybe diagrams?

Hi Tim, congratulations on finishing your book. I'll bet you're glad "it's all over".
(snipped)
Ha ha. But posting only good reviews on Amazon wouldn't that make those reviews, as a whole, fraudulent?
Actually, it's fair to your potential readers, and good for you as the author, to see all reviews both good and bad. It's good for you because it helps you improve your book for future editions.
Tim, ya' know what you might do that's useful? Start compiling an errata 'cause people will start asking you for the book's errata. And, of course, the errata can be used to improve future printings of your book. (You're probably already doing this.)
Best of Luck, [-Rick-]

Only ~30 of them are "bidirectional", that is I reply to them.
Most are simply addresses created when I order something from a site that requires an E-mail address for shipping notification, etc.
I went this route when spam started increasing...
With individualized addressing I know immediately who sold my address to spammers; or I tire of their ads and delete the address.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
All true. But I had to live up to the subject line...
As I find things they'll go into the errata. Most of the issues I have found so far are things that I want to add should the book ever go to a second edition, but I have no illusions about the book being error-free.

You young whippersnappers! I used to write production instruction manuals in NROFF and make them look good on a nine-pin printer. :-)

You had a nine pin printer? All we had was a worn out Kleinschmidt 60 ma teletype for a printer.

A Kleinschmidt? We would have dreamed of hav'n a Kleinschmidt. Would have been like a laser printer to us. We used to take polaroid pictures of the VT05 screen for hardcopy. And glad to have them we were...

I wrote an NROFF for the Diablo 1610 (or was it the 1620?) and it supported graphics via just the period. The fine steps horizontally and vertically, rolling the paper up and down, was fun to watch. It also did typesetting with both inter-word and inter-character space adjustments and supported some modest kerning, as well. And that was years after writing one for an early Centronix dot matrix.
