Have any of you found a good book on structured text? I have a customer that is asking. I can find some pdf files on the internet but they are light weight or too PLC specific.

I know Rockwell has them and obviously they are specific to Rockwell. But since they're based on IEC standards, I would think someone could get useful information from it. what PLC patform are we talking about?
