hi! i discovered the power of PV-WAVE just recently. my question is: how do i start learning the programming language? is there any good book available? i tried to search our library for a book on PV-wave but i didn't find any. even the million-title collections in amazon.com and and barnesandnoble.com don't have any. i wonder why... i'll be using the package mainly for processing of AFM images. stephen

Don't plonk the nominal author of that message. The message was forged. comp.lang.c is currently under attack from someone who posts messages to a wide of newsgroups, with follow-ups redirected to c.l.c, with the intent of provoking responses to disrupt c.l.c. He generally uses some variant of the names of the people on that newsgroup that he hates most; my name has the honor of being the most frequently used, followed by those of Keith Thompson, Richard Heathfield, and Chuck Falconer.

Noted. Be careful when answering simple questions, and check the follow-up newsgroup. Sorry for the noise. Maarten

Be careful when answering simple questions, and check the > follow-up newsgroup. Actually, posting simple questions to a large number of newsgroups is merely the latest phase of the attack. Earlier phases involved questions posted to a smaller number of groups that were much more carefully chosen, and he may revert to some variation on that theme after he's finished this phase.
