[comp.text.tex] Are there going to be new books on TeX and METAFONT ???

mboen@nixdorf.de (Martin Boening) (11/18/90)

Hi there,

trying to get to know TeX more closely, I'd like to treat myself to the
TeX book and the METAFONT book. However, I'vwe learned in this newsgroup
that TeX is now up to Version 3.0 with some changes to the program. The
question: are these changes going to lead to a new edition of the aforementioned
books? If not, I can go happily ahead and order, otherwise ... well,
I don't know. Probably I'll buy some el cheapo introduction for the time
being.

Thanx for any answer, email or posted.

Oh, before I forget: responding to the address in the From: line usually fails.
Please send any answers to 'mboening.pad@nixdorf.com', 'mboening.pad@sni.de'
or, if worst comes to worst, to uunet!nixbur!mboening.pad or
mcsun!unido!nixpbe!mboening.pad

Thanx again.
Martin
