Not yet. Is it good?

Steve,

  I like it.

Is it hugely confusing?

  That's subjective. I read his series, "The Art of Computer Programming," in
the mid-1970s just to learn how to be a better FORTRAN coder. Quite readable.
I've not yet bought the TeXbook, but I should.

How much does it cost? I see that it retails for $44.99 and you can get it
new for $38.67 at Amazon. Can I get it used? Where would I get it?

  Any of the tech book stores should stock it; most probably have used
copies, too. Amazon does; so does Powell's Technical Books
(http://www.powells.com/). Bookpool has it new, but not used.

  BTW, have you read Appendix D (LaTeX Programming) in Kopka and Daly (4th
Ed.)?

HTH,

Rich
