They're in a section in another part of the book. The system errors
(Errno::xxxx) are platform specific and take their name from the
underlying error, such as Errno::EBADF. You can print out all
the exceptions classes for your platform with:
ObjectSpace.each_object(Class) {|x| puts x if x <= Exception }

Dave and I wrote it for the book, and AWL owns copyright on the book
material. They've agreed to let us post (at a minimum) the reference
section.
>Any problems with downloading local copy?
You already have :-). I'm not a lawyer, but by viewing it on
the web it seems you've already downloaded a copy to your machine.
I don't think saving it off for personal use would be a problem.
