try to begin from typing in the command line "man man", then "man vi", "man
ls" "man cd", "man lock", "man window"
if you don't know exactly a command you can enter "apropos command" (ex.
"apropos cd") and it will give you a list of all the man-pages where this
letter combination ("cd", I mean) is found giving you a good possibility to
find out about many other commands. see what file there are in the /bin,
/sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin directories. for example you saw an interesting
file: "/usr/bin/bzip2" you've got interested what it might be... don't
hesitate and type "man bzip2"... :)
Have fun! :)
