  Try looking on page F-2 of Includes & Autodocs, or on page A-49 of
Libraries and Devices.

  Anyone with BIX access can report mistakes or ambiguities in the manuals
to the amiga.dev/book.comments area.  There was a recent message in that
topic (see message #261) specifically asking for corrections for what will
be the new Libs & Devs (consisting of the old Exec, Intuition, and L & D
manuals minus the include files and function descriptions).  So if anybody
knows of anything that needs to be corrected or clarified, report it now or
it may have to wait for the next revisions (1.5 ?)

  Consider it reported.
