I am referring to 3rd Ed of your book named <b>"Mastering Regular Expression"</b> ( I am never short of humour ). I am just 1 week old in Regular Expression world and trying hard to work my way out. Your book has definitely helped me to understand - Why and what of regular expression. Though I face few difficulties to implement in Tcl. I wonder, why you haven't included a separate chapter for Tcl. And yes your blog is also very impressive , I like those pictures. And I agree with you about that Japanese (Minister|Moron|Pig). Thanks for all.... SuNnY. Dear Jeffrey,

Thank you so much for all the effort you put into it - I have never read any other programming or technical book that would be written as clearly as yours. Your goal "to teach a man how to fish" truly stands out! Andy Jeffrey,

Not had chance to see the 3rd edition yet, but I certainly will do. If you have not already covered the ksh93 approach to pattern matching/regular expressions, I sincerely hope you will consider this for a fourth edition. I own and enjoy editions 1 and 2, and look forward to enjoying 3.

Couldn't O'Reilly change their ways a little a put a bikini model on the cover to boost sales? The bikini could have valid RegEx code all over it. Days and days of relentless rain (including Gion Matsuri) have given way to searing heat down in the valley. Don't you wish you were home? Congratulations and good luck.
