Sorry - my fault, I was thinking of the Program Usage, which to a large
extent has  to do with how to write code to produce a certain output (the
LP-book part) leaving bits and pieces which not necessarily belongs
together with the notation reference thematically, but which on the other
hand is so few pages, dealing with the fundamentals of how to run the
program, that it seems logical to have it in one place.
