Get Complete Help Files for Any Google Service
Posted by Kevin Purdy at 5:30 AM on May 5, 2008
It can take awhile to figure out all the shortcuts and features in the ever-growing list of Google web applications. The Google Operating System blog unearths a quick URL hack to display a Google app's entire help file—normally split up on cross-linked pages—in easily-saved and printable HTML. Head to the app's "support center," usually found at, for example, mail.google.com/support/, and add ?fulldump=1 to the end of the URL. Hit the Google Operating System link for direct, download-able links to the most popular apps' full help files.

Oh GOOG gods, are ye listening? How 'bout a little link icon for a single-page view of all Help pages, please?
This has always annoyed the hell outa me. I'm kinda amazed they haven't noticed user-unfriendly it is to have to keep opening separate pages.
