OK. I've taken two items from PxT's FAQ and reproduced this part of his FAQ in 'forum style'. PxT created these two link-faqs so he is the moderator, which means he can copy threads over to the FAQs he moderates.
Other Senior forum members who have FAQ ideas and want to copy threads over to the FAQ area, please let me know and I will build a self-maintained FAQ (for you to moderate) by having subcategories each with a moderator to move over 'the best of the best' threads.
Thanks for the suggestion, BTW.

Since when did unix.com become unixandwindows.com? Just my opinion, but I think this forum should stick to what it does well: providing Unix knowledge. Is there any user preference for ignoring a particular topic section? (4 Replies)

Hi
Just a thought if it already hasn't been suggested.
While looking at the forums I thought it might be a good idea under somewhere like 'special forums' add a section called 'projects'. I think this would be good for people to be able to post projects they have created.
For example I am... (3 Replies)

POPULARITY-CONTEST(8) POPULARITY-CONTEST(8)
NAME
popularity-contest - list the most popular Debian packages
SYNOPSIS
popularity-contest
DESCRIPTION
The popularity-contest command gathers information about Debian packages installed on the system, and prints the name of the most recently
used executable program in that package as well as its last-accessed time (atime) and last-attribute-changed time (ctime) to stdout.
When aggregated with the output of popularity-contest from many other systems, this information is valuable because it can be used to
determine which Debian packages are commonly installed, used, or installed and never used. This helps Debian maintainers make decisions
such as which packages should be installed by default on new systems.
The resulting statistic is available from the project home page https://popcon.debian.org/.
Normally, popularity-contest is run from a cron(8) job, /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest, which automatically submits the results to
Debian package maintainers (only once a week) according to the settings in /etc/popularity-contest.conf and /usr/share/popularity-con-
test/default.conf.

The popularity-contest FAQ at /usr/share/doc/popularity-contest/FAQ popcon-largest-unused(8), cron(8)
Additional documentation is in /usr/share/doc/popularity-contest/.
