Nothing, everything I know about Linux comes from the interwebz and user experience.

I usually check manpages or the internet, it is however sometimes a good idea to use a book to keep up the attention and the learning pace.

Pancakes
1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 eggs, 1 cup of  milk, 3 tbs water, 1-2 tsp of vanilla extract, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 apple, few grains of salt
Preheat your pan or griddle to about medium heat. Slowly combine the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, work in sliced apple. Each pancake should take about a minute or so on each side. Serve with plum jam, maple syrup, or powdered sugar

Hehehe what's that? Are Germans the only ones striving for a thorough foundation of Knowledge, hoped to be found in dead tree format? big_smile

I ain't a German, but I happen to live there for a while. Should I get worried that I acquired a copy of Linux in a Nutshell? yikes
