Fooled me the first time also: the top Title/link is for the pdf :) Seems like I need new four eyes, the link is only to an image. Hmm, the link seems to be PTAPG_1st_Edition[^] Found in freecomputerbooks.com website. It's still to the authors site, but don't know what to make of it...

I was mistaken. The link worked and I have several copies of the PDF now.

How do you know? Did you read it? If you have read it, then, what's the reason of buying it? :-D

OK - so I've analyzed the situation.

• Essentially, you've actually parsed many books to find one that you feel is perfect.
• Needing the book naturally implies your parsing itself may not be perfect*
• However, since your parsing itself is imperfect you cannot be sure if this is the perfect book.
• Buying the book, however, will teach you if you parsed perfectly to find it!
• Unless, of course, you parsed imperfectly to ascertain its perfection, in which case it would
• only be perfect by mere happenstance.
• In which case, then, if it is not perfect you're back on the road, again.

Somehow, "Rinse and Repeat" seems the most appropriate closing at this point. * We leap to the conclusion that you really meant the contents of the book are perfect.

Hmmm.... Parsing Techniques - A Practical Guide - 2nd Ed.pdf Dick Grune Ceriel J.H. Jacobs Springer 674 pages 2,670,949 bytes 2/1/2008 1:00pm Apparently this was..."added to my collection"...over 12 years ago. Ping me directly (I think there's some method on CP to send a private message?) if you're okay with some gray area source. [Edit] Duh. "Email", right next to "Reply". That should do it...
