Hello!

I found a printing mistake in the TeXBook by chance:

In the index on page 479 (left column, 4th entry), the entry on \TeX\
misses a comma and a white space.

Best regards

Hi Thomas,

In the index on page 479 (left column, 4th entry), the entry on \TeX\
misses a comma and a white space.

Thanks for the report, but I surmise you are looking at an older
edition. In the current printing (34th of the softcover, "incorporating
all corrections known as of 2011"), the entry for \TeX is in the
right-hand column of page 478, and the comma and space are present.
I didn't see any missing commas/space in nearby entries or on the
current page 479 ...

All the best,
Karl
