 - To make it easier to find, add the name:  manuals.info
 - To make it more inclusive, add entries for all the Multics manuals known on the bitsavers web site:
        http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/honeywell/multics/
 - Include URL of this web site to provide location from which to download Multics manuals in PDF form.

The reference to the URL might appear early in the info segment, along with clues about using help's -search (-srh) control argument and search (srh) request to locate manuals.

Consider moving manual version publication information into some other info block (like manual_versions.gi.info which could be a block in the same manuals.gi.info segment).  Just have one line per manual to make the list shorter.

Instead of grouping manuals by order number, consider grouping them in info sections by major topic like PL/I  or  Other Languages  or  Commands  or  Subroutines  or  Introduction to Multics  etc.
Explain these section divisions in opening section of the info block.
