Re: Coding documentation?

[Haim Roman <haim -dot- roman -at- gmail -dot- com>]

If this documentation about your company's products, then maybe relate a
doc's part # to the part # of the product it documents, or the part # of
the main component of the product.

If it's documentation from external sources, do they have ISBNs?
