But, it kind of does. It is called the On Calc help (that Help key on the top right next to ESC)

Thanks for pointing out the on-calc help, but the problem with getting old is also getting set in your ways.

I like the manual open to the appropriate page while creating my programs. I recently had to read the new ROTATE capability for GROB's in the on-calc help. It goes on for 6 screens. In the manual it would all be on one page.

With the on-calc help I can only see the one command, whereas in the user manual the other graphics commands would be right there, or a simple scroll wheel roll away.

I understand that it's difficult for HP team. Past calculators were essentially frozen at the start of manufacture and thus documentation was a one-off effort. However, the Prime is still evolving and keeping the documentation updated adds to the required work.

I guess I'll live with delayed documentation when I can get neat new features like GROB rotation.
