Kevin, I don't mean to give you a hard time,
but I thought people were headed in *exactly* the direction you're talking
about, examples. See the two replies below, for instance.
If you want a book you can buy at Amazon, I
don't know of any books on AFL outside of the docs. If you find one, go for it;
you don't need the blessings of anyone here. If you think AFL is enough like C++
that learning C++ too on your way is your best shot, knock yourself out; there
are certainly plenty of books out there on C++.

here has the bandwidth to put together a series of AFL step-by-steps, I bet
it'd be very helpful to people just getting started.

I asked a simple question and got a lot of answers that have nothing to
do with the question I asked. You don't know me, so how do you know what
I need. Does anybody know of a good book that comes close to AFL?
What's missing in the documentation is examples. That's how you learned
things in school - working through examples and finally creating your own
routines to solve new problems. That was true for basic Addition math
all the way through Differential Equations.
Two salesmen in Best Buy kept telling me the print cartridges they handed
me would work in my printer today. I kept telling them no, they won't
work. They talked me into trying them.
Of course they didn't work......
