Looks nice. A few points: 1. What's the point in keeping all of those files under version control? Why not just use some FTP directory? 2. The book seems to use screenshots extensively. I can't copy text from a screenshot. Please try to use actual text rather than a screenshot if the window in case is a terminal. This will also greatly reduce the size of the file (well, not really, as you keep all the history in the file). 3. You write about ls: ls מקבלת תווים מיוחדים שתפקידם לייצג תבנית חיפוש , סימן הכוכב* מייצג מספר כלשהו של תווים I hope you explain later on that this is not ls that interperts those wildcards. 4. rar is in the same class as tar (archiver) not as gzip (simpple file/stream compressor). Nobody really uses rar, and there's really no use mentioning it (you have not mentioned "rar-nonfree" and where exactly rar 3.x archives are supported. Let's just avoid the topic altogether). Maybe consider mentioning zip / unzip. One other question: does Docbook work well for Hebrew?
