> Microsoft was also a long time anti-commandline and against scripting, they tried to made everything clickable, with wizards and s*, I'd categorize this as incompetence, not malice towards developers. Specifically: Microsoft thought that code-creation wizards and UI would offer a better story than command line and text. Those attempts were misguided, and MS adjusted. The command line culture at MS has been pervasive for a long time, despite the quirkiness of DOS, so I must object to your categorization of MS being anti command-line and anti-scripting.
