If RunRev would put the docs online, in html format, then we could 
Google them.

Both PHP (http://www.php.net/docs.php) and MYSQL 
(http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/index.html) have their docs online, and it 
makes finding things a breeze.  But the BEST THING about having them 
online is that user can ANNOTATE THEM!  Check out 
http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.strlen.php  for example.

There are all sorts of free comment systems out there, it would be at 
most a couple of days work to get something like the PHP's or MYSQL's 
docs with comments up and running on the RunRev web site.
