Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 1.5-PC manuals appear to be in the
upgrades subdirectory on plains, in the files man.0[0-5].Z (via
anon ftp). I do not know if these are diffs against 1.3, because 1.3
from memory didn't have man pages. For those in Australia, these
are also available from the sirius archive.

Good luck!
