I just downloaded the book and glanced through a bit of it.  Does anybody else 
who looked at it find an incomplete index on pages 10 and 11, right after the

Just wondering if it is a glitch in my download (I tried it twice) or if it is

With public key authentication in place, you can do an scp with one step and

I see the same at PDF pages 47 and 48, document page numbers 11 and 12.

We also need to get John some help in creating a PDF Table of Contents (as well 
as a complete Index) with hyperlinked page numbers so you can go directly to 
the document page from the TOC (or from the Index).  That would be extremely 
useful in such a large document.

I don't know how to do that myself, but I'm sure the expertise is out here

 I see the same at PDF pages 47 and 48, document page numbers 11 and 12.

 We also need to get John some help in creating a PDF Table of Contents (as
 well as a complete Index) with hyperlinked page numbers so you can go
 directly to the document page from the TOC (or from the Index).  That would
 be extremely useful in such a large document.

 I don't know how to do that myself, but I'm sure the expertise is out here
 somewhere.  Volunteers?


​I would be interested. But that would require two things: (1) release
(under NDA or something) of the source to the book so that it can be
edited and (2) that I have access to the proper software to do the editing.
This latter basically would require that I have the proper editor package
such as LyX, LaTex, DocBook, or ? . Saints forfend that this is in MS
Word format, although I could use LibreOffice.​ But I fear this last is
true because the PDF appears to have been rendered using Acrobat Distiller
on Windows. But it might have been written in a _good_ DTP such as Adobe
Framemaker. Unfortunately, in that case I couldn't help because I don't
have Framemaker.
