Here is an updated version: www.hypatia-rpn.net/phix-introduction.pdf
I've fixed the errors that Pete has pointed out (really embarrassing ones among them), but I'm afraid that the main point of criticism still holds, that as an introduction it lacks ambition, is restricted to console apps, and doesn't provide inspirational examples that might appeal to potential users. Of course, I have no idea who those potential users may be, where they'd be coming from, what they might be looking for … Anyway, some further edits apart, this is all I can do – I think it might be better than nothing, but I'm probably not a good judge for that. Even if it is, it would be good if someone else would add the things that are missing (I could write a bit more about some basic language features, but that wouldn't address the main issue).
