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.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Have any of you found good answers to either of these questions for a
shop with 5 or more developers?
1) How do y?all make people aware what reusable routines exist?
2) How do folk find what a reusable routine does, short of reading the code?
Documentation? <grin>
The best way I believe is to use an RPGDoc tool (Paul Tuohy has one linked from here
http://systemideveloper.com/downloads.html )
We have also used a wiki (pmwiki in our case) as a central repository for documentation.
I also subscribe to the notion of using the prototypes for basic documentation and examples of useage. I also group the protos of multiple routines into a single file to minimize the number of places that have to be searched.
