This might be a very stupid question, but I don't manage to find the pgf manual v2.00. On CTAN I only found v2.10. (I'd like to find it because I want to follow Andrew's comment to this great answer.)

You can get old versions of pgf at the pgf sourceforge site. The manual should be bundled with the rest of the files.

Thanks! Not the most convenient way to obtain the manual, but I did succeed to find it in the tarball. – Hendrik Vogt Nov 17 '10 at 14:06

An alternative way is to use the TeX Live SVN repo: the root of the trees is at http://tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Master/. Then you append the location of the pgf manual: texmf-dist/doc/generic/pgf (using texdoc -l pgf will show you that the file is there), and click the pgfmanual.pdf link to see the list of revisions. Finally, use the "download" link for the revision you want: here the final url is http://tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Master/texmf-dist/doc/generic/pgf/pgfmanual.pdf?revision=6741.
This works fine for files whose location doesn't change too often.

Thanks; this is a nice option since I can find different versions at the same spot. – Hendrik Vogt Nov 18 '10 at 09:38
.codeare in Section 55.4. – Matthew Leingang Nov 17 '10 at 13:21texdoc pgfmanual)? Surely, you should read the version of the manual directly relevant to the version that you have? (And I should have put the section number in my comment as being a better reference.) – Andrew Stacey Nov 17 '10 at 15:26.store inhandler that you mentioned, and could more easily find this in the 2.00 manual. Moreover, I wanted to have a look at changes as there is this question about the bug in 2.10. – Hendrik Vogt Nov 17 '10 at 16:13
