<10665@spark.ed.ac.uk> iad@cogsci.ed.ac.uk (Ivan A Derzhanski):

   I'd be glad to RTBMFBook, but some colleague of mine
   appears to have withdrawn the only copy from the library.

So buy a copy!  There is no point trying to make serious use of TeX or
METAFONT without your own copies of the manuals.

Just a suggestion.  Damian.
