I see no shelf for Unix System Services as formerly. The 1GB .zip does have a .pdx. I overlooked it earlier somehow. It organizes search results by relevance. But some may find the Adobe Reader requirement onerous. But no index.htm[l]. And the collection expands into "zOS310-GA-Indexed-PDF-package-(2023-09-29)/". I'm uncomfortable with using shell metacharacters in path names. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
