          can often copy&paste from error-message pop-ups although
          that's not really a Cli thing.  For pasting into Cli i think
          it's worth mentioning that the keyboard short-cuts wont work
          but that mouse paste is always good.  I always imagine the
          person at the other end going "Ewwww" at that, if you say it
          right, and that helps them remember it.  Humour being a good

                  I agree with every one of you that the CLI is very

                  personally I am not afraid it would be too difficult

                  use commands in the terminal. Perhaps it would be a
                  good idea to add <br>
                  this tip: you can copy (from a web page) and paste the
                  command in the <br>
                  terminal. This is to avoid errors like "l" and "1",
                  "O" and "0".<br>
