	Maybe I've just been a cranky sysadmin for too long, but IMO
any question that can be answered by a very brief perusal of available
docs or an introductory tutorial of the language is basic.
	As for the bit about trying to make sense out of others' code,
well, I'm still working on that bit myself :-)
