You sound like someone who learned the unix toolset back when man(1) had
a hundred entries or so and you could flip through the whole printed
version in an afternoon memorizing the short mnemonic names and their
uses. I suspect it is a lot harder to figure out now that there are
many thousands of programs to pick from and a search for anything will
have millions of irrelevant hits. Of course you could just learn perl
and be done with it since it can do pretty much anything you'd use the
shell and tools for.
