This is a borad subject and is actually best declared within a working
document or operational manual.
>where to save it?
It depends on the purpose. I local intranet accessible via Netscape is
good but so is using something like NNTP.
how to activate it? etc.)

http://www.kernel.org
http://www.linuxdoc.org
http://www.oswg.org
http://www.google.com
http://www.<insert distribution name here>.com (like www.redhat.com or
www.mandrake.com)
>- short description of the different kinds of help (man, info, howto, --help,
>whatis, etc)
man pages, online manuals for commands and programs
info pages, same thing - replacing man within a GNU environment
HOWTO, usually found in /usr/doc/HOWTO but main site is
http://www.linuxdoc.org
--help and -help are command specific and do not always work.

Instead of asking why a piece of software is using "1970s technology,"
start asking why software is ignoring 30 years of accumulated wisdom.
