Tool For Read Comprehension Idea

Why not use the computer to help you understand the text. The idea is that you can practice words and meanings for the books you want to read in advance. It would give you a much better experience. I would like the Project Gutenberg. The free ebook project to collect data on their books so the reader could practice words he doesn’t know but are in the book. The practice would be done on any of our computing devices. The PC, tablet or phone. I don’t know how this would work but I think you need to group the words together. For example you have basic, intermediate, advance, new and old english words. I think however you can produce a list of the most frequent difficult words of each book. This could work for paper books also if the books has already been scanned. You just search for the book and go to the word test.

Document Your Linux Terminal Knowledge



Simple Version Of The Command Manual Pages

Inspired by I think there should be additional documentation for the Linux terminal commands. Two versions where one should contain basic words and simple wordings. If it could help more people understand complex programs I think it will be worth it. To get more documentation in the hands of the users I suggest using wikipedia as a storage. Maybe there is a possibility to crowd source comments to improve the simplified manual.


ls is the command in Linux to list files in folders. If you enter ‘ls’ in the terminal you list the files in the current folder.
The command has many options. Where some are.

-l    list more detailed information.
-R    also show content of sub folders.

Here you write ‘ls -l’ in the terminal to use the -l option.

Example in the terminal.

Installation and UserGuide Podcasts

I think Linux can take advantage of podcasts for a better user experience. For example when installing the distribution you could have the option to play a relevant and fun podcast. Compressed with Opus. It would not take to much space on the .iso. Also as a way to engage new users. Getting them to read the Official User Guide it would be nice if there is a complementary podcast where a group of people discuss each of the chapters. I think this would keep them interested reading the whole thing through.
