I've been proof-reading David's epic tome, looking for those tiny
typo's
and boo-boo's that plague many new books.

I have to congratulate David! After 20 years of using IDL, starting
with v2.1 on VMS,
I've discovered in David's new book information about old subjects
that is both *new* and
useful.

There's also plenty in there that I may have read once, but long ago
fell out
the back of my conscious brain.

And I'm only half way through the book. David probably wanted the
proof-reading done
quicker, but I've been too busy actually reading the book.

Well done, Coyote!

Only one question though - where was Coyote Graphics back in 1991?
Oh wait, XManager didn't even exist back then...

Regards,

Andrew
