Davyd et al.,

Make man first. Add apropos immediately below. (This is the only one I
would quibble with order about. man should always always always be the
first command anyone learns, IMO.)

pico/nano (vim probably not a good idea, given that this is aimed at
newbies)

links (with note of Esc for menu) instead of w3m

Add traceroute/mtr to the ping category?

Change ssh to ssh -2 whatever

Add uname -a

Cheers,

David Adam
