In the description of the Flex feature, there seems to be a mistake.
The code provided at the end of the book does not seem to match the
description of page 77.

"Add the final parameters and call to Subrs entry 0. The First
parameter declares the size [...]. The second and third numbers are
the final coordinate [...]"

Whereas the Flex routine defined in Appendix 3 (page 92) line 32
starts by binding the parameter /dmin, then /epX and /epY (standing
for "end point X" and "end point Y" I guess).

Did I miss something or is there an error somewhere, and in that case,
who is right ?
