Yes, a very good section! I also went through the manual, to see how you use the term CLI. Let it be CLI, the files are CLI in the wider sense. I totally like the manual, I like that it is one page, because I hate such manuals which have "previous chapter" and "next chapter" link...

Ah, I see. You might think about introducing a third category: config files. It's not an abbreviation, but definitely a wide used method to configure Linux. The config files is also a category a new user might not know about. I never touched any system files when I was running Windows. They were a p...

The term CLI is a bit unclear here, I would suggest to call it "fstab: Open a root Thunar window and ..."

There is a package localepurge, with it you can choose which locale you want and which you don't.

My opinion is to always find the application you want in the repositories, and if it does not exist ask our packaging experts if they can build it.

I am just starting to understand some of this. Between the help here and videos of ppl working through their installations, every day a li...

If s.th. goes wrong simply post the terminal output of ./configure here and I think there will be at least 5 competent people to give you advise on that (probably not me). However, I'm asking myself ...

Hello i-Scan! Would this package give you GNU Radio functionality? https://packages.debian.org/jessie/gqrx-sdr There is also Gnu Radio on Debian: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/gnuradio Shame on us that we didn't look there before. So, you wouldn't need to add any repositories. Just install like...
