I'm putting together two handouts/cheatsheets for a UVLUG presentation
and I wanted to get some input from other linux users from around Utah
as my knowledge is limited to my experience which is nowhere near as
much as some on this list.
The first handout I'm putting together is a commonly use program
reference. I'm sure we have all asked the question of "I know what
program to use in some other closed source OS, what is the equivalent
in linux?" Just trying to get something together that would be good
for us all (especially newbies, so gui apps would be preferred where
applicable) who may not be familiar with the terms some of the others
of us are.

The second is a command line reference with the same sort of feeling
of being newbie friendly. I still have to add descriptions and maybe
add commonly used options since man pages can be intimidating to those
not familiar with them.

I'm sure I'm missing some packages/projects that are commonly used by
others on the list and I'm sure nobody would mind learning about a new
programs that may make life easer so speak up with ideas.
