Hi, Baloff!

This isn't really the place to ask this question.  There is a policy in
the GNU mailing lists and associated newsgroups that only free (as in
speech) books and those licensed under the GFDL may be specifically
recommended.  This policy is, in general, respected by posters here.

There are books on Emacs which don't fall into the above category.  You
would thus do better asking this question on the newsgroup comp.emacs, to
which I have cross-posted this article.

> thanks

All the best!
