I tried running the example in the text around Figures 4.1 , 4.2. I'm
running WinXP-Pro/SP3, Firefox 3.6.2, Firebug 1.5.3. All the details
are in the following Command Window results. It's pretty obvious that
"new" is not a regularly recognized Windows command, but I don't know
whether the author was running Unix, Linux, Mac OS or something else.
BTW, I think this book is a great tutorial.
Thanks in Advance,
Richard
