Hello Brian, Eric,

One way to simplify commands for newcomers that came to my mind is
to extend the use of environment variables to provide default values
for the --db and --branch options. Example:

export MONOTONEDB=monotone.db
export MONOTONEBRANCH=net.venge.monotone

monotone db init
monotone pull venge.net net.venge.monotone
monotone co monotone

By the way, here's a newbee question; Is there a difference between
collection and branch, as used in pull and co?

// Tomas

PS
My personal opinion is that those three initial steps above are
essential for the understanding of how monotone works. It may not do
any good in the long run to hide this from a newcomer.
