I learned shell scripting from the bash man page. Does that take me straight to
demented, do not pass go, do not collect $200?
(And I learned DOM 1 programming straight from the W3 specification, too. What
perl I know comes from the man page. Learned awk & sed from the man pages. In
fact, I don't even understand why they sell books on these things when there
are perfectly good RFC's, specification documents, man & info pages on these
things...)
