All the manuals are available in PostScript and Acrobat PDF format. If you want to read the PDF files, just click on them. To be able to read the PS files directly you have to follow the instructions below.
If you have trouble reading the PS documents in Netscape, choose Edit->Preferences in the menus, press the little arrow in front of Navigator so that it points downwards, choose Applications and find Postscript Document. Click on Postscript Document and then on Edit.... Click on the box in front of Application and write gv %s in the box and it will hopefully work.
Most of the documents are available on paper in the locker in the room where the macs used to be.
