Very nice work. I haven't read the whole book but the few pages I've
looked at are very nice. And the first page is rendererd well this time!
:)
Looking at table of content, I find numbering starting at 0 strange (for
a book ;). Tim, is it you who have introduced following latex code?
\pseudoChapter{Introduction to Axiom}
If it's you, what is the rationale? I suppose you did not want to
disturb original book chapter numbering? Should we use a different
numbering style (roman?) or a different typesetting? (ok, I admit, it is
a rather minor point)
Regarding book content, I would propose to add:
- a (sub)section on TeXmacs (in section 1.1) (starting an Axiom session
in TeXmacs, pitfalls that users have encountered regarding multi-line
input);
- a section on electronic contacts (web sites, mailing-list, wikis,
community, etc.);
- an appendix on Axiom compilation (at least pointers on the source
code part to look at in order to compile Axiom).
What do you think of it? I volunteer to write the first draft of them.
My 0.02 epsilons,
Yours,
david
