Is this book now available?
CF Yes - the book has been out since June 2003. I took a few copies to Tcl-2003-E and sold several copies at Tcl'2003 US.
LV What do you people who own this book think of it? Does it meet your expectations? I did a little technical editing of the drafts, though I haven't seen a finished copy of it yet. But it seemed to me to provide an alternative to the Welch book if that book overwhelms the reader. This [L2 ] review, published in September 2003, takes more words to say the same.
Joe Mistachkin I own the book. I've read quite a bit of it. Very good all-around coverage. It seems to be geared toward people just getting started rather than the "reference manual" style of Brent's book (which I happen to have all 4 editions of).
