What features should it have?
* **concise** — it should be concise; it should contain only things you need and nothing else;
* **fast** — it should be possible to use it instantly;
* **comprehensive** — it should contain answers for every question you could have;
* **universal** — it should be available everywhere, as soon as needed, without any preparations;
* **unobtrusive** — it does not distract you from your main task when you are using it;
* **tutoring** — it helps you to learn the subject;
* **inconspicuous** — it should be possible to use it completely unnoticed.
