Is there reason to believe the authors of Concurrency in Ada would
choose word for their revisable format ?
Is there reason to believe the authors of Concurrency in Ada would
release their work in revisable format ?
There can be a very good reason for choosing Postscript.

if you are talking about "Concurrency in Ada (2nd edition)" by Alan
Burns and Andy Wellings (ISBN: 0-521-62911-X), the errata can be found
in HTML here:
http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~andy/CIAerrata.html
well, the index is in a PostScript file...
since you want a Word file, i assume you are on Windows. on Windows you
can read a ps file using Ghostscript/GSView (although this software is
not easy).
you can also convert from a ps file to a pdf file online using for example:

The reason simply is to be able to read it so that I can get what I though
that I had paid for. The index is in Postscript. It seems logical that if
you make a blunder of that magnitude then you should post the correction in
a widely readable format like plain text for gosh sakes! The main text
Errata is in html ,which I already printed out, but the index is in
Postscript. Go figure.
