I learned HTML fully in about a week and then learned XHTML(which wasn't much to learn as it's just a cleaner syntax then HTML) in under an hour. I know those aren't Unix related... but they're languages so I'm just using it as an example.
That's actually the way you should think about it. It's only a language, it's the logic that you apply that counts.

reborg - I definitely have the mind to want to get things working and keep working on things until I solve any problems I run into.
Then I would look at the system integration route, lot of experience really quickly and lots of challenges.

NAME
lessecho - expand metacharacters, such as * and ?, in filenames on Unix systems. SYNOPSIS
lessecho [-ox] [-cx] [-pn] [-dn] [-a] file ... DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the lessecho command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. lessecho is a program that simply echos its filename arguments on standard output. But any argument containing spaces is enclosed in quotes. OPTIONS
A summary of options are included below. -ox Specifies "x" to be the open quote character. -cx Specifies "x" to be the close quote character. -pn Specifies "n" to be the open quote character, as an integer. -dn Specifies "n" to be the close quote character, as an integer. -a Specifies that all arguments are to be quoted. The default is that only arguments containing spaces are quoted. SEE ALSO
less(1) AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Thomas Schoepf <schoepf@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). Less was written by Mark Nudelman <markn@greenwoodsoftware.com> LESSECHO(1)
