Well, you know what I'd like to suggest...mabye instead of just printing the defition and waiting for input, mabye it could do it like a multiple choice thing? and it could pick random terms for the choices? for instance, instead of: 
get network record given its address  (weight: 1)
(type an answer, '?' to see the right answer, 'score', 'save', or 'qui
+t')
_

it could have: 
get network record given its address  (weight: 1)

a) socket
b) bless
c) getnetbyaddr
d) getgrent

(type an answer, '?' to see the right answer, 'score', 'save', or 'qui
+t')
_

And they could type in the name of the function OR the letter choice. Just a suggestion.
