I am very grateful for all |
5 |
of the assistance I have received with this set of works (the book, |
6 |
the tool set, and supplemental materials). I would |
7 |
like to extend my gratitude to the following individuals |
8 |
and institutions. |
9 |
|
10 |
For assistance in procuring \LaTeXe{} (\emph{4allTex} Version 5), I am |
11 |
grateful to Mr. Erik Frambach, Mr. Gerard van Nes, and the Dutch |
12 |
\TeX{} User's Group. |
13 |
|
14 |
For assistance in learning how to use \LaTeX{} and \TeX{}, I am |
15 |
especially grateful to Mr. Tobias Oetiker\footnote{Author of |
16 |
\emph{The Not So Short Introduction To \LaTeXe{}}, which is |
17 |
available on the Web.}, |
18 |
who provided detailed e-mail answers to all of |
19 |
my questions. Mr. Oetiker also provided the source code for his |
20 |
document on the Web, and I was able to use this as a template to |
21 |
jump-start me in the direction of an aesthetically pleasing |
22 |
\LaTeX{} book. I am also grateful to the Dutch \TeX{} |
23 |
User's Group, the UK \TeX{} |
24 |
User's Group (UKTUG), and many helpful posters on the |
25 |
\texttt{comp.text.tex} newsgroup |
26 |
\cite{bibref:n:comptexttex} for support. |
27 |
|
28 |
For hosting this project (the book, the tool set, and all supporting |
29 |
materials), I am very grateful to \index{SourceForge}\emph{SourceForge} |
30 |
(\texttt{http://www.sourceforge.net})---coordinating and |
31 |
distributing this project simply would not have been possible without |
32 |
their support. At SourceForge, I am very grateful to Mr. |
33 |
Jacob Moorman for technical support and assistance on many, |
34 |
many occasions. |
35 |
|
36 |
I would like to acknowledge the contribution of \index{GNU}GNU |
37 |
(\texttt{http://www.gnu.org}), |
38 |
\index{Free Software Foundation (FSF)}The Free Software Foundation |
39 |
(\texttt{http://www.fsf.org}), and all of the open-source |
40 |
developers in the world who have produced many excellent and |
41 |
helpful products, including |
42 |
\LaTeX{} (used to write this book) and |
43 |
\index{Tcl}\emph{Tcl} (the basis |
44 |
for much of \emph{The ESRG Tool Set}). |
45 |
|
46 |
Finally, I would like to gratefully acknowledge the |
