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!
