I don’t think you need to learn every cli tool in depth. I don’t know awk, but I recognize its power. However, I’ve got a set of tools I find easier to use, a few that I’ve written, and Ruby or Python at the command line. I’m sure awk could replace many cli tools, but at the cost of learning a new language (and cognitive load with each use) it hasn’t been worth it.
