Thanks my friend.
There is nothing complicated in asking basic questions.
I will try to describe you the issue.
I have been living on the Internet for the last 20 years
and expected to access some learning technologies to learn faster what I need for some research projects I am working on.

You must be both Sheel Programming and Scripting expert and guru.
You are smart and there is no more chance to read or view all of your posts.

Example: 2

My efforts to learn basic of Gnuplot.
I have visited via Google about 20 web sites devoted to Gnuplot.
Both manuals , FAQ, examples , papers ..
and spend more than 24 hours reading and testing gnuplot examples.

Could you tell me how to access 1-page abbriged gnuplot manual, just basics:
few examples for dumb terminal,
how to plot from data file input
how to plot from live data stream
how to plot from shell, perl, javascript, php script
how to write plot macro as a script

So what I am really interested in, is 1-page manual.
Otherwide I visit interesting web pages, each 20-50 pages long
and extract and extract what I really need for tests, to build
1-page manual of interest to me.

The same with c code examples.
Some come with Makefile, some don't, just zipped directory of files.

In the last few days tried to compile Linux dialog
and curses.h is missing
ncurses-devel
not compiled yet. for my Linux embedded device.

I can ask you, others to help me or look for 1-page HowTo manual to get help on myself.

That's the problem.
Visiting Google I get access to hundreds of web pages devoted to gnuplot, Linux dialog, Shell scripting.
But what I really need is 1-page HowTo manual
or good answer to my HowTo question.

As people are busy answering hundreds of questions, and to get the right answer promptly is not easy, my solution to this problem is to extract just what counts from 100-page manuals.

In the case of shell programming and scripting forum with thousands of questions asked over and over again, such an organization of archives with already answered questions, to keep text as short as possible
and questions aggregated by categories, tags.

Tag cloud is still not a solution to your 489 pages long archives.

I am sure, the same question, asked by me, have been already asked and got answered hundreds of times in the past at this or another place.
On Usenet, other web sites, mayby on Google Groups or the like.

And I work really hard to find answers to my questions on the net before asking them on your forum.
Mayby I am wrong, but referring me to a right place is as good as giving me a right answer.

So human-based Google-like search engine is exactly what I am looking for.

As you claim that it takes humans some time to understand a question asked in fully, so mayby there is a way to replace humans by
some algorithms, generating such abriged 1-page manuals
for a question asked ( knowledge extraction from Google scanned, indexed
and ranked virtual libraries).

If you are aware of any such solution, please let me know.
