By the way, I picked up David Lai Amiga Tech Reference ($14.95) which
is practically just a complete cross-index, ala UNIX man page cross
index, of all Amiga system calls, MANX and Lattice symbols.  
That's all it is needed.  The "separate" sections are much better
than the A-W single combined section.  I never bought the A-W
manual for the simple reason that the Commmodore-Amiga ones were
so much better organized.  But I do miss the "working" examples.
