AW is notorius for their poor code listings (the indentation is terrible - if someone actually formatted their code like that, they'd be canned). Take a look at the Thilmany or the Nantz book to see what I mean. This sounds like a great book, don't let it be spoiled by poor editing.

I mentioned this to Karen Gettman, Editor-in-Chief at AW and this is the first she's heard of this. If you can provide more details (than just the indentation) I can connect you with her to improve the way they print source.
thanks, Vince
Anyone else out there not happy with AW code listing?

"...and this is the first she's heard of this."

Same old song and dance. We never knew that.
