How about the once-a-week FAQ that gets posted to high-use newsgroups? These usually list guidelines for posting, along with answers to the questions that are asked too frequently for comfort. On the other hand, many users HAVE TRIED to solve the problem before they ask here. They just didn't see the right line of the man page, or weren't thinkning along the right lines of the problem. There's no use discouraging them from posting if they just can't find the answers elsewhere. It would be nice to make it easier for them to find the answers themselves, however. Carl
