- andrewguenther 10y agoIt would be equally as hard through a good command line. Why is good design only possible in GUIs?
- pwthornton 10y agoIt's easier for humans to conceptualize what is happening if you visualize the design for them. A good command line would better protection would have helped, but this fails some of the core of good interface design.
