Thanks for the hint. After reading the reviews on Amazon, I immediately ordered the book.

FWIW: The oldest piece of software (apart from the antiques inside Windows and Paint etc.) is an old version ThumbsPlus from 2005. That’s an image viewer and simple editor I use for batch-editing/converting and for cropping image files. I have used it since 1995. I do no longer know the keystrokes I use - my fingers do.
