How is that magazine? I've enjoyed Plauger's books (back to Elements
of Programming Style) but I haven't been real impressed with the couple
of issues of CUJ I've looked at.

They just seem . . . novicish. Obviously, Plauger doesn't write the
articles.

Interesting bit of Plauger trivia: Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0's C++
library includes at least one file labeled "Copyright P. J. Plauger."
