Just annotations of little "how to's", so I know I can find how to do something I've already done when I need to do it again, in case I don't remember anymore, which is not unlikely.

QDirstat's "open file manager here" fails from the user perspective if you just replace "pcmanfm-qt" to "dolphin" in the command line, even though it says it was "successful."
