Thanks for your information.

Now I also canceled on amazon and orderd on informit.
They deliver faster and its *cheaper*

BTW: I don't understand the difference of 2 month for the publishing.
amazon.de:28.Juli
informit.com:  2.Juni  (shipping: 3-7 workdays!!)

Congratulations. I must say that I really like the cover design.


Hum, I don't, to be honest. It looks complicated, hard to understand, 
even senseless, which is not the sort of impression you want to give for 
a programming language. :/

I don't think I'll try this language, because the picture on the front 
is complicated, therefore the language must be.


Really? Really?!

If someone's train of thought actually goes down that path, then they're 
a certified moron, and it doesn't matter if they don't like it. :]

 Congratulations. I must say that I really like the cover design.
 Certainly it will stand out from the myriad of O'Reilly programming
 books -- the ones which have a white background and usually a picture
 of some animal on the cover.

 Of course it is no surprise seeing that there is a foreword written by
 Walter Bright but getting Scott Meyers to write one as well is not too
 bad. It would be an absolute scream though if it also featured a
 foreword by retard :-)

I bet a straitjacket is 100% safer than the noose around your neck. :o) 
This time it isn't made of rope, it's a string, a .stringof to be 
precise :D Have fun with your (I'm too lazy to test how broken this is 
now, probably you get at least some extra parentheses):

enum bar { a,b,c }

template Tuple(T...) { alias T Tuple; }

class Bar {}

class Foo {
  bar b1;
  Bar b2;

  Tuple!(int,int) tuple;
} 

pragma(msg, Foo.tupleof.stringof)

I admit to having wondered that for many languages. INTERCAL perhaps
the most.

But then Andrei would have had to publish the book through O'Reilly

used for the cover design. :-)

I've often wondered what kind of animal O'Reilly would use for D. That

An interesting question which will no doubt solicit some interesting 
answers.


btw, I'd just like to say that what's turned into a little 
skit/twist/joke is by no means intended by me to poke fun at, or to 
ridicule any person or persons named herein.  I've mentioned previously 
on this ng that I quite enjoy reading the some of the controversial 
posts by same and as much as I'm sure I'll enjoy reading the TDPL book. 
 So, in other words, I trust that retard will take no offense from my 
comments and nor should he/she as absolutely no offense is intended.
