[PS:  has anyone approached some of the magazine publishers to see if they are
	willing to provide TOCs in advance of publication, or whenever, in
	machine-readable form?  I'm sure they could as they have it in their
	machines, and it sure wouldn't hurt their sales.  and as it is
	welcome information for us that does not require typing, I'm sure
	that noone would consider such postings as improper advertising.
	Dr Dobbs headquarters seem to be located in Palo Alto, if someone
	there wouldn't mind making a local call there to ask the question]
