[comp.sys.amiga] /B is for Binary. Why didn't I think of that?

 Of course how silly of me! I should have realized what that /B meant.
I was wondering though, is there any other 'trivial' information like
this left out of the manual?  Armed with the /B info I should be able
to guess what most things mean now, but I fear for my wife. You see not
being at all interested in the hows or whys of a computer she would falsely
assume that awrite was broken. Yes, yes, I can't understand this either.
I have tried to explain that when something isn't in the manuals your
supposed to guess. She just doesn't understand though. She says
 "I don't *care* how it works, I just want to *use* it!"
It's attitudes like this that will kill the Amiga. Tragic.
