Hrm .... Try looking for something about "CUA" guidelines.
IBM did have something about 15 yrs ago, but what happened to it, I dunno.

Many of us use MMoS or the Sun Style Guide as a basis for writing PC-related
documents.

Can anyone suggest a similar style guide for mainframe computer
documentation?

I contacted IBM's Publications Center, and they claim to have no idea what
I'm talking about. IBM docs are inconsistent in their style, but it's hard
to believe that they don't have a style guide. The contact person also
didn't know what I meant by a Tech Pubs manager...

Yes, I can make style decisions and apply them consistently, but it would
save time to have a published guide as a basis. And I have yet to find a
single Web resource that provides what I want.

Thanks. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
