Not too much to share today - just a couple neat little things I ran across over the past couple of days, to wit:
1. if you give chown a user with a trailing colon, it will automatically use that user's default group. ex:
2. Pinfo is a more user-friendly info file reader/browser. The jk keys do what any God-fearing vi user would expect them to.
@rant: I don't want to learn emacs keystrokes just to read info that should have been in the man page! durn kids these days...
that's all for today!

This is the first of a series of at least two posts about how I've configured the excellent Gnu Screen to fit my needs and make me more productive.
