I am looking for a publisher for my new book on Advanced C
Programming.  I want it to have the widest distribution possible, I
need to make money on the regular edition and I would like it to be
available free as well.  Has anyone found it possible to negotiate
such a contract with a major publisher?

My need is urgent as I have started discussions with one publisher of
an arrangement that would leave the examples free but the text would
not be.

Thanks for anything you can come up with.
