Avast thar ye bespectacled landlubbers ! |
Have you never wished that the instruction manual for your favorite Open Source software came as a real hard book ? Working with new Open Source software is challenging enough, without having to read the accompanying manual from off a computer screen. If this is your trip skip this site and go marry your optician. But shiver me timbers, I don't think life should be so hard and that's why I am compiling the books and manuals on this site.
I also expect that a hard book in hand will give you more confidence to tackle those really hard programs and thereafter to thank the developers with a money gift.(You may also thank me too :Put Money Here and See What Happens ) My books are unedited and so any mistake that is present in the original soft manuals are faithfully reproduced. Therefore when buying , please observe the primary and only guarantee that comes shipped with all free Open Source software : use intelligently and at your own risk.
If you do not find a book that you want , you may want to suggest it to me and I will add within a few days.

If you have written or published a book and you will also want it listed, do pop a letter (no pdf please) in a (sealed) bottle and send it afloat Sargasso Sea to tell me about it - or better still register or login to submit a link to your book.
And don't forget to subscribe to receive details of new books added monthly as well as other goodies in the dead man's chest
