Can anyone say if IBM has decided to sell the Technical Library in 
electronic form?

I don't mean the on-line "documentation".  I mean the full text and figures 
of the paper docs, including the three-volume programming guide.  I would 
certainly think that IBM could get this set on diskettes, and include a PM 
viewer and a print program, for much less than the $300 the library costs.

An added advantage would be that the electronic format files could be 
updated and bug-fixed without buying a whole new manual.

I need the manuals, but will wait for the diskette version, if IBM is going 
to do it.
