A minor nit, I suppose. Formatting of cli commands has mangled them to the point they cannot be used. For example
# dpkg — list
will not work. The correct command is
dpkg --list
I suppose I'm particularly sensitive to this because I ran into a problem copying some commands from a terminal window into a Google Document and then copying/pasting them back to the command line. Google Docs had changed some of the spaces to something that looked like a space (both in the doc and in the shell) but was not and caused inexplicable error messages.
Anyway... I prefer stuff where I can copy/past directly to a terminal window and have it work as the author expected.
