I like it when I just want to read through the whole document with my screen 
reader, not having to page through it. I also like being able to search the 
whole document. And, converting it to EPUB allows me to read it on my phone 
when I'm away from the computer, if I want to.

Hi,

I always used the manual online as one html page but it does not seem to
be available since (?) the website revamp. I prefer the manual as one
page for many reasons. Is it still available online?


I've always used the one-page per section version on the web (although
I tend to use Info much more often), primarily because I thought that
downloading the whole manual to just look at a section or two or five
would be inefficient - in fact, I've wondered why the single-page
versions of various manuals (particularly the larger ones: emacs and
elisp) are made available. So it is idle curiosity on my part, but
what are the the reasons for your preference?

Converting to an ebook format to read on an ebook reader is one possible
use-case.

Best,
