Hi, I’d include “how to open a zipped file.” If I (or others here) can find it, there’s a great list of skills gathered when we brainstormed what to put in the first Data Carpentry workshop. I’ll have a look.

The Carpentries tone for me has emphasized learning and inclusivity, and that means acknowledging learner needs through interaction during the workshop. I don't think anyone is suggesting otherwise, but I thought I'd say it specifically so that the purpose of the lesson, or maybe "pre-lesson," be understood in the larger picture. My suggestions for this lesson are: 1) It might be good to know what "home directory" means in different operating systems. 2) Common spreadsheet programs 3) Common text editor programs Slightly separate topic, in a recent Community Discussion Call, we covered that US Government employees will never be given administrator privileges to their machines. This was a discussion with two US Government agency employees who had trained to become instructors, so they will be working to lead workshops inside their agency. I thought a good one-pager that might explain how machine IT staff could be brought in as helpers and advocates could be useful. This list is for the purpose of general discussion about The Carpentries including community activities, upcoming events, and announcements. Some other lists you may also be interested in include discuss-hpc, discuss-r, and our local groups.
