Okay, I'm still getting a hang of what I'm doing here, but I seem to be doing well enough that I'm mostly asking my friend/"tech support" stupid questions which he says can be pretty much all answered by reading the man pages. However, I absolutely loath reading anything of any length in a console window. Is there a more "user friendly" (read as newbie friendly) way for one to be able to read the man pages?
Yes, you can enter "man:/command_name" or "# command_name" in Konqueror to read man pages within the browser.
But really, learn to love the console. Embrace and hug it, as there is mucho power there that is not in the GUI.

Oh, the console is great, and I'm getting the hang of using it... however, it's just annoying me I can't use my lazy little scroll wheel in my mouse to go through the document. I'm really not used to using keys on my keyboard to navigate through text documents I'm reading.
Now do I have to use Konqueror for this to work, or can I use Firefox? I'm really not growing attached to Konqueror, and I like being able to use my tabs in my Firefox window. ^_^
Thanks much!
