Arun Chandra asks:
    Does anybody know of the book:
	    The Illustrated Handbook of Desktop Publishing and Typesetting
			    by Kleper
    I just found it advertised in a commercial catalog, and would like to
    get it if it's worthwhile (it costs $23.95).

This book is very (uh) comprehensive.  It's 770 pages, including the
index.  There are just tons of data about all sorts of systems.
Being a died-in-the-wool troff person myself, I found the book
surprising in that it doesn't mention troff, tbl, eqn, or pic.  It
devotes less than two pages to TeX, and two paragraphs to Scribe.
Other than those small omissions, the book covers a lot of stuff.

	.......... Henry
