Wonder if anyone would be willing to write a tutorial for "How to use command line instructions in Calibre"?

I certainly wouldn't expect her to use the command line tools from Calibre.
Never, ever, no way, uh uh. But most of the point-n-clicky stuff would be well within her grasp -- if there was a manual that she could read to get started.
She's not super-good at computers. But she's been a Mac user since about 1990, so she's got many basics down pretty well.

P.S. Please note that I'm not complaining about lack of a manual. I fully understand that it's open-source, community effort stuff. B*tching about a manual should properly be met with the response "so write one!" And I don't have time: 3 papers and a book to write in the next way-too-short time period.
