RE: APIs: Where are the @#$% manuals?

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've already complained to the feedback link about this problem - the links 
are _designed_ for Web use only - or for being on the InfoCenter CD. It 
sounds as if they know this and WILL not change it. (small rant - BTDT). I 
was told IIRC that this will not change,

These are links within PDFs, probably relative links to location of the 
PDF. Another fine mess IBM's got us into!

This is why I go  to the V4R4 or V4R5 online library to get these PDFs - 
the whole thing is there. And if I need something newer, I'll get it.

So I'll try iNation approach.
