Gary,

man pages, nothing beats man pages.  RH also has some decent
documentation in HTML format stored locally (if you've installed it).

and then there is the old standby "[EMAIL PROTECTED] does this binary do?"

cd /bin or /usr/bin or /sbin or /usr/sbin or /usr/local
type a<tab> 
it will show a list of each application beginning with a.
(provided you are using a decent shell -- if not use bash or tcsh) 
(take that mark!)

pick one of the applications you see and type $app --help
($app being the name of the application)

If that doesnt tell you enough then you can type man $app 
man will tell you everything there is to know. 

It may seem like alot to learn, yet like windoze and DoS command line,
once you use it a few times its difficult to loose.

Trevlig Midsommar!
