The killer app for Linux would be a documentation finder program.  I think
we can all use the programs and everyone can navigate with a mouse.  But how
many times are you looking for that one magic switch or flag?  In my mind,
something that can replace man, be in a format that is familiar (think
Googlish), and be fast.  This to me would be the killer app.  Maybe
something like what Google has for windows (Google Desktop).
