<P>
Here are some notes to help you use the online edition of this book:
<UL>
<LI>
Trying to find something in the book?
When you're searching, remember that you can do more than use the
system-searchable index.
Your browser probably has a built-in search command to search the page
you're viewing.
So try a search command inside the table of contents.
Or, when you pull up a page of the book, and you don't see the place
you were looking for, use your browser's search command on that page.
<LI>
These files use the HTML non-breaking space character, <I>&amp;nbsp;</I>,
to hold related words together; if you see it in the text, either get a
better Web browser or imagine that you're seeing a single space.
The same goes for some non-ASCII characters, like <TT>&iexcl;</TT>
(an upside-down exclamation point, represented in HTML as <TT>&amp;iexcl;</TT>)
and this <TT>&ntilde;</TT> (an <TT>n</TT> with a tilde (<TT>~</TT>) over it,
reperesented in HTML by the entity <TT>&amp;ntilde;</TT>).
<P>
If your browser has any of those problems, you'll have some trouble viewing
these files because your page won't look exactly the way it should.
<LI>
If your connection to this Web site is slow, you can FTP copies of the
book files to install on your local computer.
They take 4 or 5 Megabytes of disk space after uncompressing.
They aren't updated as often as the rest of the book (which will be
updated often, I hope!).
But if you'll
<A HREF="mailto:jpeek@jpeek.com">send me your email address</A>, I'll
add you to a list of people to notify when I make new versions.
There's a
<A HREF="download/mhbk9910.tgz">
<I>gzip</I>ped <I>tar</I> file</A> (good for UNIX systems) and a
<A HREF="download/mhbk9910.zip">
ZIPped file</A> for DOS/Windows and other machines with ZIP-compatible
unarchiving programs.
Be sure to get the
<A HREF="download/README">README file</A>
for more info.
