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

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.

- me letting you know
There should be a feed back area somewhere.  Try that.  Someone suggested
viewing the source and looking for a name.  Given that information you
could always try
whois.ibm.com which redirects to
http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/us/
Failing all that there's always the iSeries Nation customer satisfaction

OK So I start there and end up a list of the different types of API's
here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r1/ic2924/index.htm?info/apis/apiprnt.htm


Which is great.  So I pick on the Unix API's (27mb download)  and click on
subtopic and it trys to send me here:
Y:\dv2k\shadow\dev2000\usertech\v5r1\cur\cmvc\doc2924.mri\apis\unix2.htm

Still needs work..............................
