I'd like to tack on a question burning in my mind:

What about documentation for sqlplus?

Are PL/SQL and sqlplus related? I just aquired Oracle v7.0.16.4 by purchasing a VAR's product that bundles said DB. Of course, the sqlplus came bundled without on-line help, and as i'm sure you'd agree, sqlplus is a pain in the ass without major tweaking (read, "not user friendly - you'd never figure it out without a FM").
