I'll be able to report that shortly (SV says I'll get it on
the 8th).  I'm not new to programming, but fairly new to
NeXTstep, having done only things prompted by the IB
Tutorial.  My colleague who teaches our C and C++ programming
classes and who is a fellow NeXT maven told me yesterday the
book is very good indeed.

the best of all possible ways, the more expert the better.
