I hear you. But all is not lost.

When I want PDFs, I usually have pretty good luck with the iSeries Supplemental Manuals link - it's on both v5r1 and v5r2 versions of InfoCenter. Once there, there is a map that leads you to where things are now. Actually pretty nice.

The last release that had the APIs mostly in one place was V4R4. Already some things were moving to InfoCenter. V4R5 had the various sections in separate PDFs, all in InfoCenter, although there is a "Print these topics" link there.

I like to keep links to the V4R4 Publications in English, and the same for V4R5. The former is <http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/ct44eng.htm>, the latter is <http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/ct45eng.htm>

HTH, and did not give you too many direct links ;-)

Ok, <Rant>

I am trying to find the API manuals in PDF format so that I can download
them.  Please, I respectfully ask that no one give me direct links to them
but, rather, HOW you find the links to them.  I'm looking for all the API
manuals (I think), like message handling APIs, user space/index APIs,
file/data APIs, etc.  I would expect to be able to search for "API" and
get a list of manuals that I can download.  Like the results from a
bookshelf search in the good ol' BookManager.
