That's true enough and I agree to a point.  That said, I remember well
when I was a raw GNUbie (just this morning, in fact) and was told
(repeatedly) to RTFM.  I had no idea where to find said M, nor did I
know that there are many roads to the same destination.  With that in
mind, maybe a suggestion to RTFM should also include methods
to /access/ that fine material, whether man pages, info files or HOWTO
(or that fine Ubuntu Manual (which is dead easy, BTW)).
