>But how did those old Unix guys remember all those esoteric commands?
Uh ... Because there weren't as many commands in the old days, and as we went from "young" to "old" we invented stuff as we needed it?
Remember when DOS fit on a single floppy and was extremely easy to memorize? How big and complex was the last version of "DOS" (Win98SE)? Those of us who followed the DOS -> Win trail over time didn't find Win98SE to be all that difficult.
And again, what's with all this "cloud" stuff? Write it in vi, and then type-set it in whatever you use for type setting. (Or "copy & paste to Word (OO) & make it look pretty" if "type set" is too technical.)

I must be getting old ...

The Ukrainian man pages made me giggle, too :-)
