I don't find that very surprising at all. We still have not progressed to the point where most publishers would consider ebooks anything better than a second-class citizen. As such, the books are designed for print format, and the ebooks are generally produced from minimally finessed variations on the print format. Because print books generally do not come with syntax highlighting (in large part because of a desire to minimize printing costs), ebooks generally will not come with syntax highlighting either (in large part because of a desire to minimize changes in the publishing process despite supporting a completely different publication format). By the way, there are ebook formats that do not support color, too. That means that in some cases the simple fact of desiring to minimize costs while supporting multiple formats can result in skipping syntax highlighting, too. The fact of the matter is that the Pragmatic Programmers imprint is (unsurprisingly) way ahead of the curve in some respects. --=20 Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
