RTFM
At the early days of UNIX, when thousands of dumb users just kept on asking questions that are just a copy paste away in the manual, the UNIX Technical Support just had to come up with a reply that would save them time and teach these people to just simply ‘Read The Fucking Manual’
[Unix] Abbreviation for ‘Read The Fucking Manual’.
- This instruction is sometimes given in response to a question when the person being asked believes that the question could be easily answered by reading the relevant "manual" or instructions.
- It is also used to tell someone to try to help himself/herself before seeking assistance from others.
