Henry, because _you_ say it's an interface for people to run the whole darned computer with, doesn't make it so. Yes, something really cane be more than one thing at once. I feel that anyone who progresses to the point where they need to do either more sophisticated things, or even things that would be awkward or error prone to do with icon/mouse will have to use the appropriate tools. The CLi happens to be one of them, and anyonewho refuses to recognize the need to do so is just not facing reality. Consider… what method would you use if you wanted to delete a number of files based upon a matching of patterns in file names? With any sort of an icon/mouse interface, what method would you envision to perform the function without resorting to typing something on the keyboard? Facer it Henry, there are some things that just aren't suited to WB. Just what they are is a matter of debate, but there is definitely a line there somewhere.
