I will try to be explain. I am sitting in my imaginary system administrators office. One by one users come in and ask the same basic question; "What application can I use to do foo". I should remember everyone of the thousands of programs on the system. After all I did install them. But I really can't. I am just to stupid. Wouldn't it be nice if I could tell the following to everyone to type "command keyword" or "command string", and a list of applications related to that keyword or string would be provided. Perhaps the location of documentation could also be listed. This way when I am trying to convince a friend that Linux is better than MS and they ask "but, can it do foo?", I can do a search and quickly and easily say yes try any of these applications to do foo. Personally I have sometimes found an application on the system long after I actually needed or wanted it. Much time is wasted in needless frustration. Tom
