Yes, absolutely correct, it is contained in the Docu.zip located at
ftp://ftp.ethoberon.ethz.ch/ETHOberon/Native/Update/Alpha

I fired up my old Native Oberon Alpha installation on an orphaned
HP Vectra (Pentium 1/133). There is a Book.Tool, which I successfully 
opened with a middle mouse click on Desktops.OpenDoc Book.Tool (after 
typing Book.Tool after the Desktops.OpenDoc, which was in my Sytem.Tool.
I really don't remember if/what I already configured differently from 
the installation default System.Tool). Book.Tool is an active hyperlinked 
text, which opens the different chapters by clicking on the corresponding
titles. 

I know this is awful for someone who is still downhill on the steep
learning curve of the Oberon System.

It is possible to open these files in BlackBox, but the figures and 
images are missing ...
