I often find that the command name is far removed from how newbies would talk about a task ("grep" is meaningless* compared to "search"**) - GNOME has done some great work on this by creating sensible categories for applications, unlike "<company> Control Center Ultra" on Windows, but it needs a lot more work and a lot less ego. Also, the bridge between the available materials and the expected end point might be two or more levels removed: You just bought the Weird Worlds download version, and have no idea that gnome-terminal, ls, mount and wine could get you to the next step in 30 seconds (if they're all installed and you know how they work).
Come to think of it, why doesn't find have an option like "--contains" to grep, instead of the incredibly obtuse find
* Yes, I know what it means
** Yes, I know you can echo "alias foo=\"bar\" > ~/.bashrc. Try that on someone who doesn't know what grep is.
Using salts with hashes obsoleted rainbow tables years ago (if you know what you're doing).
There, corrected it for you.
