yes, in a tutorial, surely there already, but also a pointer to something is needed on manpages, as us basic users will recall that we once saw a 'startx' man page, and start from there when looking for how to 'stop x'. http://www.useit.com/alertbox/ often shows what is happening in the minds of us basic users. anyway, "can't find the off switch during an emergency" is sort of the feeling...
