With that statement, you've made it obvious that you don't actually understand the capabilities of the CLI. Both CLI and GUI have their uses, and it's definitely not the case that a GUI can do everything a CLI can do (unless you kludge in CLI-like functionality into your GUI... a textbox where you can type a CLI command isn't actually a GUI; nobody considers xterm or Konsole or MacOS Terminal.app a "GUI"). (And conversely, there are certainly things that are much more easily done with a GUI than a CLI). -- Name: Dave Huang | Mammal, mammal / their names are called / INet: k...@azeotrope.org | they raise a paw / the bat, the cat / FurryMUCK: Dahan | dolphin and dog / koala bear and hog -- TMBG Dahan: Hani G Y+C 36 Y++ L+++ W- C++ T++ A+ E+ S++ V++ F- Q+++ P+ B+ PA+ PL++
