Hummm... that's what I was afraid of. I am currently working on a glossary of "Terminal Terms" on the wiki that still needs lots of work. I have a list of terms and definitions/explanations to add. I needed to find out how to make it look like the terminal. Now I know how (it's that pesky space), I just haven't had a chance to put them up.
I guess I could start one for acronyms and things like that. If folks would agree to add to it whenever they use one that isn't already listed it could become quite useful. How about it folks?

Is there a glossary on our wiki that links to pages with definitions? If there isn't, there should be. A lot of folks don't know the jargon.... yet!
