Plack Handbook for printing

2014-12-22: I will enjoy my Christmas holidays to learn Plackup. "Plack Handbook" by the creator of PSGI/Plackup is a good start, but unfortunately it is only available as an ebook. I am a paper book lover and I appreciate good typography, so I need to convert it in LaTeX. The LaTeX version is designed to be print in A5 format. As I have very little time, the LaTeX code is a little ugly.

The content is exactly the same as the ebook. The changes relate only to the layout and typography.
