* and ! are hard to search for.  I used:

shadow exclamation asterisk

and hoped for the best.

Perhaps SCO will come out with a "Linux Has No Documentation!" campaign, 
pointing out that the documentation included with SCO Open Server is 
superior. (Which it is, BTW.)

After the countless, lengthy, point by point rebuttles we would surely 
have to endure, there would probably be no fewer than 10 new projects 
created to remedy the situation, all of which would be dead by 
Christmas, because documentation writing is soooooooo very boring, and a 
thankless task, as well.
