And let me suggest one particular place to RTFM when the
doc has you stumped: the Permuted Index.  What is the
Permuted Index?  It is a listing of every title of every
manual entry in the SCO XENIX Operating System, Development
System, and Text Processing packages.  Each title is
listed once for each word in the title, and the whole lot
is then sorted alpabetically.  For example, if you look
up "editor", you will find references to ed(C), ex(C),
ld(CP) ("link editor"), sed(C), and vi(C).  The Permuted
Index is uncerimoniously buried in the back of the Users's
Reference, but it can be a handy tool when you're not sure
which of the seven SCO XENIX binders has the information you
need.
