\noindent This is a list of all corrections made to {\sl Computers \&
Typesetting}, Volumes A,~C, and E\null, between 30 September 1989 (when
the revisions for \TeX\ Version 3.0 and \MF\ Version 2.0 were made) and
December 31, 1990.
Corrections made to the softcover version of {\sl The \TeX book\/} are
the same as corrections to Volume~A\null. Corrections to the softcover
version of {\sl The \slMF\kern1ptbook\/} are the same as corrections
to Volume~C\null. Some of the corrections below have already been made in
reprintings of the books. Hundreds of changes, too many to list here,
have been made to Volumes B~and~D because of the upgrades to \TeX\ and
\MF\null. Readers who need up-to-date information on the \TeX\ and
\MF\ programs should refer to the |WEB| source files until new
printings of Volumes B~and~D are issued. \looseness=-1

Floating insertions can be accommodated
as a special case of split insertions, by making each floating topinsert
start with a small penalty, and by having
zero as the associated |\floatingpenalty|; non-floating insertions
like footnotes are accommodated by associating larger penalties with
split insertions (see Appendix~B).

line if you insert
`^|\noalign||{|^|\break||}|'
after the |\cr| for that line. You can prohibit {\sl all\/} breaks
in an |\eqalignno| if you set ^|\interdisplaylinepenalty||=10000|; or you
can enclose the whole works in a ^|\vbox|:
\bugonpage A233, bottom 9 lines, and top three on next page (12/2/89)
\danger The |\+| macro in Appendix~B works
by putting the \<text> for each column that's followed by~|&|
into an hbox as follows:
\begindisplay
|\hbox to |\<column width>|{|\<text>|\hss}|
\enddisplay
The ^|\hss| means that the text is normally flush left, and that it can
extend to the right of its box. Since |\hfill| is ``more infinite'' than
|\hss| in its ability to stretch, it has the effect of right-justifying or
centering as stated above. Note that |\hfill| doesn't shrink, but |\hss|
does; if the text doesn't fit in its column, it will stick out at the right.
You could cancel the shrinkability of |\hss| by adding ^|\hfilneg|; then
an oversize text would produce an overfull box.
You could also center some text by putting `|\hss|' before it and just
`|&|' after it; in that case the text would be allowed to extend to the
left and right of its column.
The last column of a |\+|~line (i.e., the column entry that is
followed by |\cr|) is treated differently: The
\<text> is simply put into an hbox with its natural~width.\looseness=-1

To anyone who has lived in a modern American city (except Boston)
at least one of the underlying ideas of ^{Descartes}' analytic geometry
will seem ridiculously evident. Yet, as remarked,
it took mathematicians all of two thousand years
