Some people here advise novices to issue the command `learn' after they have managed to sign on. I personally think that a person is much better off to sit down with a terminal on one side of them, and a copy of UNIX for beginners on the other. I would be interested in hearing from people with views on this matter. I would also like to hear from people with experience writing learn scripts. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
