You started it Bernard... and because I have nothing better to do - here goes:
*ALL* the Softimage search, docs, SDK docs Local/Remote/netview suck TERRIBLY.

AND, they are dog slow.
AND, has anyone succeeded in getting firefox.exe working by changing it in
SetEnv.bat?

Maya's localhost implementation of it's docs since v6.0 may be a little more
complex to setup, but damn it works.

(phew ;-)

 Thanks all.


 /start rant

 That really flips me out: since XSI 4, I just can't find *anything* in
 Net View. I searched "icons" and did not get to the emdl. Even XSI
 Base's search engine is better. Wtf?

 /end rant.

 Perhaps I should start using google to search the Net View.
