I started teaching post 16, then move on to uni and to adult education. Finally teaching professionnel courses to companies.

teaching professionnel courses to companies.

Did that in the late 90s. Always on the road.
Resumed teaching in the 2010s (schools).

Quit education after Corona.
That opened the door to a more relaxed lifestyle :wink:

You can use your teaching skills here in the forum, in a relaxed way.
Would you consider writing tutorial topics?
@Rosika and I have done a few, here is an example

It does not have to be as complicated or large as that example.
What I do is , if I find something I had to work hard to achieve, I write it up so others can benefit.

No pressure, you can decline with grace.

I could not face under 16, not enough control in classes, post 16 was hard enough thats why when offered adult I bit their hands off.

My wife was a teacher also in post 16 but gave it up early due to stress. (Perhaps living with me rather thant the students)

Kids at grammar school in Central Europe used to be still manageable :wink:
But you’re right. The trend here is also kinda toxic.

Hello Friends

Sorry for the huge delay …

Daniel

Manuel, I am curious: what would you use this list for? (It would contain tens of thousands of commands.)

Wooh a lot …

For:

  • academic purposes
  • researching purposes too

and consider the following scenario:

  • You need to resolve a network situation, so if you have the complete and official list of the commands about the network category. Then is possible have many options to find the solution. Consider if “M” command is better than “B” command. I hope you see my point.

Do you just want to read through it?

Yes, it to have in hand a bigger range of commands as tools to resolve something. And because you are an author: consider write an appendix for many categories about commands. For example Appendix A for Network, Appendix B for Encryption and so go on … from where you can do a comparison if each appendixes have the correct set of commands?

Would you use it as a reference to find commands of a certain type?

Yes, like a toolbox

Were you looking for a specific command recently and couldn’t find one? Something else?

Not really, but I thought that situation.

I’m just wondering what problem you’re trying to solve with a gigantic list.

Have a central reference.

Something similar than in Java where there are official repositories for dependencies:

Maybe there’s a better solution than a list.

Good point too

Rosika

The book follows the structure described. It should come close to what Manuel is looking for. But in German

Agree, but each book is a different research by each author … perhaps some book covers some commands not covered in other and vice versa

Thanks for the links

Neville

You need to have a CLI commands section on your FOSS home page.

+1 it would be a good beginning to start a kind of central standard reference ..

Consider: How was “Filesystem Hierarchy Standard” created?
