\chapter{Acknowledgements}

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
|
47 |
topic-specific contributions of the individuals who are
|
48 |
acknowledged at the end of each chapter.
