I agree, I usually don't need a long narrative explaining how to use
something like software, usually the commands themselves are self
explanatory.

Thanks a lot folks for your great help. I wish someone would make a list of
all of these line commands. Or may be such a list exists, but I have not
seen it. That would make the life of beginners like me so much easier.
Cheers to all,
Cris

Another thing to add to that wish list, a program where you could type in a task
you wanted to do, and it would tell you which program did that. Something more
specific then google.

There are several such resources and you should become acquainted with them. The truth of the matter is simply this: Your learning process will never end.
Please note that the installation HOWTO for the Speakup Modified Fedora Distribution explicitly and directly points to several references. Consult it at:
In particular note the pointers to Red Hat's installation manual. There are other good guides such as "Getting Started" and a "Customization Guide" at the same general web page.
Also, notice the resources mentioned in the "Now What" section of our installation HOWTO.
http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/fedora/HOWTO_INSTALL.html
Also, National Braille Press has a "cheat sheet" of common Unix commands which can be useful. There's also an old book, "Understanding Unix," which is relevant and works well as a beginner's reference. I believe it, along with other texts, is available at BookShare and on audio media from RFB&D.
So, you really do have resources.
