Here are some more hints:

* in addition to man pages, there are also the info pages. Info pages dig deeper into the heart of the matter then man pages.

* When using KDE, you can view the man pages in Konqueror by going to Start->Run and typing in the box: #dir
(for dir man page)
or: ##dir
(for dir info page)
