Yeah, I'm not too worried about it being obsolete, I just think it's the
best doc
I've come across and I'd hope it would be a going concern. I'm
preferring it
to the book, even, mostly due to the fact that the former spends less time
digressing into other shells. The Googleverse is a sad place when one is
looking for the best docs because it shows you everything. Nice to find the
really best doc and trust it. BTW, I figured out how/why it came to be that
I thought the Guide and the Manual were the same thing: It's because they
show the same icon in a browser tab so I closed one at random, thinking
they were the same doc anyway and I guessed wrong.
