This is a special version of the manual in which substantial differences to version 4.00 are marked in this style (if you enable style sheets). Additionally, there is a new appendix containing just the ocaml grammar rules. This enhanced version was produced by Hendrik Tews, it can be viewed online at http://www.askra.de/software/ocaml-doc/4.01 or downloaded as tar.bz2 file.

The original manual is also available in PDF. Postscript, DVI, plain text, as a bundle of HTML files, and as a bundle of Emacs Info files.
