Well, you know what I'd like to suggest...mabye instead of just printing the defition and waiting for input, mabye it could do it like a multiple choice thing? and it could pick random terms for the choices? for instance, instead of:
get network record given its address (weight: 1)
(type an answer, '?' to see the right answer, 'score', 'save', or 'qui
+t')
_
it could have:
get network record given its address (weight: 1)
a) socket
b) bless
c) getnetbyaddr
d) getgrent
(type an answer, '?' to see the right answer, 'score', 'save', or 'qui
+t')
_
And they could type in the name of the function OR the letter choice. Just a suggestion.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
