so if i understand, because he doesn't know what's a terminal he doesn't have the right to know about it? come on!
among you who borned with the knowledge?
this is a forum for maemo users, if he doesn't post his questions here where do you want him to post them?
It wasn't necessary to show him that u know more than he do. this is not about challenge, but instructing. In this way you all discouraged him. This a shame for those claiming to KNOW.

Nobody was borned with it...

He's in a Linux forum.

Here's the options I have for him. You want to spoon feed every infant on the Planet that's your biz of course.

Options:
1) as mentioned, his asking the question means he has no use for Xterm

2) Google Xterm

3) Google Xterm and RTFM

That would help him more than any spoon feeding.

Give a man a fish, he eats for a day, teach him to fish, he eats for a lifetime.

Some starve to death if they don't get free fish everyday. In my world, that's called natural selection, I don't believe in Free Fish. If you ask questions in a Linux forum you had better have Googled a little and explain that the man page has you confused.

Welcome to Linux! Ask any questions you want, but remember, it's a sign of weakness!

:D

I'm guessing that the Nokia marketing department doesn't share your view of "natural selection." :)

Nobody is forcing you to answer his question.
and u used an exemple against your thoughts einstein. Of curse we have to teach him, but if he doesn't ask questions how would you know the difficulties he has? the knowledge about a specifik thing is relative sir, compare to some other people you are a newbie, but nobody blamed you for any reason. Most of the questions here could have successfuly, been googled, but since "Maemo-Talk" is a place of discussion,they have been discussed. I'm not continuing arguing with coz u are are missing the point and making me missing the point too, since we are not answering his question.

Don't be shy FatPhil. Worst case, you'll just spontaneously combust.
