Another party wanted to borrow my manual! I sent him my two marginal annotations and redirected his attention to pragma-ade but his request gave me an idea. Perhaps we all should exchange annotations where there is a typo or other error we have uncovered. It would be a kind of group errata sheet. To start the ball rolling here are my two annotations: ------------------------------------------------------------ p 148:change "head=nomarking" to "header=nomarking" p 242: Modify example by adding opening brace prior to \startcombination and closing brace after \stopombination: ... {\startcombination ... \stopcombination} ------------------------------------------------------------ Obviously there are features that are covered elsewhere or covered better elsewhere. That is not my immediate concern. If we can just pool our marginal corrections it would be of mutual benefit. I use the English language manual in letter size format. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf
