   Congratulations on hitting the 20,000 mark with your Programmer's{ guide. 
I heard you say a few months or so back that you were working on possibly
coming out with a Beginner's Guide to C Programming on the Amiga and/or
Learning C on the Amiga.  Well, where is it?!? :-)  I remembered you also
saying the the Abacus C book for beginners was not all that great, and, well,
after reading it, you're right!  I'm having a bit of a time learning it with
this book but it's coming.  I know BASIC, a bit of Pascal, and 6502 assembly
so I can cope.  Are you still planning on coming out with the book?  I know
now isn't the time for you to start on it and have it help me as a beginner
but I really wanted to ask: Have you started it and are you almost finished???
If yes, for either, then, is there any more concrete info than RSN?  Thanks
for all your help!  Oh, another question:  Will you Programmer's Guide to Amy
help me out now as a beginner learning the language, or is it mostly learning
Amiga once C is mastered?  Again, Thank You!!!
