There are two types of documentation: gcc/2 and OS/2.  Don't bother
printing out the documents that come with gcc unless you want to muck
about the internals of the compiler.  Man pages are a different story
- I've recently seen a REXX script that performs the man command
semantics.  

OS/2 documentation is hard to come by and I expect it to continue.
I've got a couple of PM programming books and Petzold to get the
general hang of things (as well as windoze programming experience).

The OS/2 Toolkit has really provided everything I need to produce
useful work: the online references are very detailed and exhaustive.
