× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Although they aren't technically APIs, it sure it nice to have an easy
way to find them. :) Perhaps they deserve their own finder, often the
main search fails to turn up what you are looking for or it is buried
so
far down in the list it takes forever to find! How much work would it
be
to split them out?

Yeah, that's the spirit. Let's index everything at the top level! Why
should we be concerned about whether a particular thing is SQL or RPG or
some API or even if it's relevant to the area in which the search takes
place? That's why we have computers: let them do the work. All we'd need
to add is a little bit of AI so the machine will know what we mean without
our saying so. But then we shouldn't need search because the system will
show us the answer when we open the browser.
