\noindent This is a list of all corrections made to {\sl Computers \&
Typesetting\/} between 15 March 1992 and the publication of the final
printed versions of those books.
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. Changes to Volume~B refer to the fourth printing
(1991), which differs markedly from earlier printings because it includes
all the revisions for \TeX3.0. Changes to Volume~D refer to the third
printing (1991), which differs markedly from earlier printings because
it includes all the revisions for \MF\kern1pt2.0. Changes to the mini-indexes
and master indexes of Volumes B and~D are not shown here unless they are
not obviously derivable from what has been shown.

discard~$q$; in that unusual case we subtract the length of~$q$ and any
other nodes that will be discarded after the discretionary break.
