Personally, I don't really like the index.html method IBM provides, so
I made a VBS script that takes that index and turns it into a pile of

I do! I think it's one of the most usable ways to access the manuals IBM
has provided in a long time.
Sorry I wasn't very clear! I do like index.html a whole lot better than
my old method which was (like Wendell) renaming the pdf files to their
title. And of course I really appreciate being able to download the
whole collection all at once.
Really, my only problem with index.html is that (at least in Chrome) the
pdf file is opened in the browser. So I'm stuck using the browser's
search method, among other things. There are probably Chrome ways
around that if I would just look. Oh... one other nitpick - I always
tend to try to click the Title but I need to click the filename to the
left instead. But that's just me being overly picky.
