   Amen to that.  I just counted: considering the book recommendations
we've made in this thread, "Sensei" now has to read

        The TeXbook: 483 pages (\newcount\allpages\allpages=483)
        The TeX sources, a. k. a. "TeX, the Programm": 535 pages 
(\advance\allpages by 535)
        The LaTeX sources (source2e.pdf): 482 pages (\advance\allpages by 482)
        The LaTeX Companion, 2nd edition: 1090 pages (\advance\allpages by 1090)

hence a total of:

        \showthe\allpages
        > 2590.

pages to read (and a tag price of about 50 euros, I'd guess, for the
TeXbook and the LaTeX Companion).

   I may have forgotten some other resources we mentioned (I recommended
fntguide.pdf at one point, but it's a paltry 25 pages, and it's mostly
redundant with the LaTeX sources and the LaTeX Companion).


Thanks for these other books.
