Tip: How to remove about 350MB from /Developer

Hi everyone. Today I found a way to save about 350MB from /Developer, so I figured I'd share with you all.

The developer documentation installation includes documentation in both HTML and PDF. Since most of us probably don't use these PDFs, removing them will get you nearly 350MB of space back.

The way I did it was to use the Finder's search feature and search for PDFs in each subdirectory of /Developer/Documentation. This is because some documents are only available in PDF (like the CHUD Tools documentation), so you don't want to delete every PDF. Going through the subdirectories makes it easier to find the ones that you might still want in PDF format. Anyway, it takes a few minutes, but you save a substantial amount of space IMO.
