I see it as an issue of "cognitive load". The whole GUI thing is there that you don't need to be an uber-specialist in networking to set up the router, the wifi, the ATA.
Yes, of course. To me that seems so obvious you might wonder why anyone needed to mention it to anyone. Or would need to mention it. I mean.
A GUI depends almost solely on recognition. A CLI depends in large part on remembering.
You can see easily which will be easier to use.
While a valid point, its more that just that, the GUI may embody many commands, do checks to make sure the input is sensible and consistent. A CLI may be a series of commands that need the same string as a parameter for a number of them and typing it over and over risks error.
Of course. Don't forget the time saved.
I forget stuff all the time.
You'll do more of that as you get older. If you get married you have to remember anniversaries and birthdays. All easily forgettable.
Don't worry about that. I only remember the birth date of pretty nurses. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
