GUI's also fail to allow you to chain commands, like putting the output of a find command into the cp, or allow you to pipe output to other applications.

- drunkpotato 15y agoApple's Automator app is quite good at this. I like it for making little one-off droplets, so you can drag a bunch of files onto it and process the batch. It's still not quite as powerful as doing things at the command line. It does interface better with the OS and lets you write quick graphical apps.
