This is a rough draft! Issues are expected.

what's here

  • epub - made by pandoc from markdown
  • pdf - made by calibre from the epub version

features

  • we can proofread and annotate on offline devices! 🎉
  • includes the WIP effort to turn images to markdown tables
  • includes the redrawn diagrams, as vector graphics

known issues

  • chapter links in the Preface chapter don't work
  • there are many more chapter links that have never been fixed up to work at all
  • some tables have irregular column widths
  • the TOC numbering is slightly out of sync, counting the frontmatter as chapter 1, About as chapter 2, Preface as chapter 3, Chapter 1 as chapter 4, etc.

epub

  • the epub has the svg diagrams and formulae, not the png fallbacks
  • Apple Books isn't showing code blocks, on desktop?

pdf

  • an extra page break before section 12.1
  • Bluefire appears to have some intermittent font glitches with italics
  • some lines are split between pages, and some lines are truncated at the right

what's next

  • pandoc worked for making a legible first draft, but using something else probably would help or sidestep the issues here. so, exploring alternatives is a good idea.
  • these were made with default layouts for the software; customizing font sizes, margins, and the like should maybe wait
