One thing I'd love is for the PDF to have a TOC. It would be great to have when opening on my iPad in iBooks!

Not too many pieces of software out there that can say their software is so well-documented, it almost takes up 3000 pages.

It has both a "printed" TOC starting at the end of the first page, and a PDF TOC which should be visible to iBooks.

Thank you, Nathan! This is going straight onto the e-book reader.

All 3 PDF files have a TOC - at least Evince is able to show me one in its sidebar.

It's helpful, and also a clever pun: there is not a lot of software that can claim a help document of a approx. 2600 pages. very correlated to the steep learning curve of vim.

I fucking like it :)

...but you can't read it in vim, you have to use emacs doc-view-mode for that ;)
