Missing manual ?

[Thad P Floryan]

Chris Dutchyn laments:

" ... if I got everything I should have.  In particular, I got four
  manuals:
	1. Owner's Manual (with GSS drivers)
	2. Getting Started
	3. Communications Management
	4. System Software (with all the disks)
  But, everywhere the manuals say "look in AT&T UNIX(tm) PC UNIX System V
  User's Manual" for information on just about everything.  In particular,
  many of the unique utilities (ktune etc.) are not standard UNIX as I
  know it, so I need that kind of info.  The question is: is this manual
  supposed to have been included, or is it a separate (and separately
  priced) object like the "extended editor" (vi) stuff?
"

The User's Manual (Vol.1 (Sysadmin stuff and misc docs), Vol.2 (commands,
subrs, etc.)), Programmer's Guide, and "something else" accompanies the
UNIXPC Development Set package (which include the C compiler, document
prep set, etc.).  I believe the list price of the Development Set is $495,
but discounts are available from various UNIXPC dealers (for example, I
believe I paid $395 from Softly Speaking in San Jose, CA, and MicroAge in
San Jose has (or had) it for around $425-$450; I don't have the current
pricing from TRC (in the Los Angeles area) or from DDS (in Atlanta GA)).
Other docs accompanying the Dev Set are also critical if you intend doing
software development on your UNIXPC, so you DO want to acquire the Dev Set.

You want to be SURE you get the correct version of the Development Set to
accompany your "basic" Foundation Set software (e.g. BOTH for version 3.51,
3.50, 2.0, etc.); I've noticed differences in both the docs and the software
for the (for example) 2.0 and 3.51 releases for the UNIXPC.

A price list accompanying the Foundation Set software also quoted pricing for
the docs (separately (for use with the programs accompanying the FS)), but
it's better to get the whole package (software and docs).
