It's actually a what Goldfarb did for SGML, arguably, is put off 99% of the people who picked up that monstrous tome. I think its a terrible, unhelpful, offputting book. it typifies why SGML was such a huge marketing failure. we need a *fun* book about DSSSL. and plenty of publishers would risk it, if anyone can write such a thing. which did you read in the old days, the Red PostScript book or the Blue one? sebastian DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
