i can understand. it takes time. just consider what it was like in 70's
when i started learning micro cpu's and unix, as well as others, when
there was no internet as it is today.

as for man|info, 'man' was written when terse was in. 'info' is just a
little less terse. ;)

note links in my sig, from tldp, a search for "scripts" at tldp provided;

http://www.google.com/cse?cx=017644269519104757279%3Agm62gtzaoky&q=scripts&sa=go#gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=scripts&gsc.page=1

granted, that link leads to a lot of reading, but i believe 1st, 4th
and 5th hits will be of great help.

i envy your learning c++. i started out with machine code and assembler.
having learned them, i could not see a lot of advantage of c when it
can out so i learned it to work up screen displays quickly, which i
would dissemble and rewrite.

i wish i had stayed with c and gone further with c++. i can read and
debug them, but creating with them is a downfall for me.
