    CLI quick menu

    Hi

    I couldn't find anything regarding this and I'm not sure if it's meaningful to implement such a feature, could maybe cause more harm then good.

    At least for me, I have trouble memorise by heart 'all' CLI commands when I would like to have quick access, of course I can (and do) google/forum search for them, but I find myself in a jungle of commands and pages of text for a supposedly quick task. "Hey - use notebook/pen/paper!", yupp I do, but sometimes, in a haste, I write something down that I have trouble to find or even read

    I thought of a CLI quick menu at the side with the "Board-, Personal Menu and Calendar" with the most useful/helpful commands and what they do, could range between Beginner to confident user, in different categories in drop down menus for instance. More of a complementary then a substitute.

    As said, not sure if it would be helpful, anyway - just an idea.

    We've all seen these cheat sheets, and usually they are not brief but go on for a packed page or two of 9 & 10 pt typeset. Too many commands, too many different user needs.
    My how-to, from which you can easily extract a 1-page (12 pt type!) summary to cover 80% of basic needs:
    -- Commands at Konsole: Beginners: 3 parts

    I need to add an APT summary, which I did include as an Appendix to Reply #6 here:
