In addition to all of the above that applies to beginners, start writing file-listers :) Say, write a program that lists all the files in your home directory, sorted by date, sorted by size, grouped by file-extension ... oh look, search a group of directories for movie files, of at least 1mb, sorted by date ... things like that

Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!

Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.

Please read these before you post! —
