...and all other new(ish) folks. Do check out the above link--I'll put it here again.

This should tell you just about all the hints and shortcuts, etc., you could ask for. Thanks again to jmh for compiling them and to Max for putting it such easily-accessible form. We kept it on the first page of I & A for a long time. Y'all think we ought to make the effort again? (This involves whoever sees it getting down to the bottom and ready to go off the first page adding a "post" (I just put an x, since a blank one wouldn't be accepted), then deleting it as soon as it's posted. Making a new post causes a thread to jump to the top of the category. However, we quickly realized that it would be better to keep this particular thread "strictly facts" and not keep tacking on irrelevant posts.)

Welcome aBoard, lautreamont. I see you're in Prague. If you don't mind saying, is English your first language?
