By the way . . . it might be desirable to find an appropriate site on which
to post this stuff for general use. Where's the most appropriate site?

Perhaps that will be the way to make these items
available to those who
need
them. I've had several requests for one or another
of these documents in
recent weeks. This may turn out to be somewhat of a headache, as some,
e.g.
the SIEMENS documents, are still in the form of a
booklet, and, having been
wet at one point or another, it may be desirable to scan them and reduce
them to text as opposed, simply, to preserving the graphic images. This
will mean the graphics need to be repaired in some way as well.
Apparently, as people try to resurrect their ancient computing hardware,
they find some of it is in need of maintenance. Mine certainly has turned
out that way.

If this stuff is worth preserving, perhaps
there's a way to save scanned
images for eventual conversion to PDF. Does anyone know about this?
Send it to me, if you like. We should have all the tools needed in house.
cheers,
