If you're referring to my comment on indexes, this isn't what I meant. I simply meant the .des files that contain pointers to the actual books, whether in .boo or .pdf format, and the metadata necessary to decide if a book is current or has been superceded. It looks as though IBM is not maintaining those files, perhaps because Softcopy Librarian has gone away along with Softcopy Reader, even though SL supports the IBM-preferred PDF format quite nicely. > Actually, it's now easier to dowload just a product at a time as the XKS > shelves are parts of "pkits" that all > have "order numbers". Easier than what? It was much the easier to let SL do the work...
