I also enjoyed the original article.  I have been a UNIX user/maintainer for
many years, but I also become annoyed with the lack of good documentation.
After experiencing the "other" VAX operating system, students are willing to
invest the time in learning UNIX and seem to get a big payoff in terms of
improving their productivity.  But, for casual computer users, UNIX has
been less than successful here.  Can anyone recommend good UNIX books
with readable command summaries that are targeted to less experienced
computer users?  Thanks.
