Why I like the CLI:
* Uses minimal resources. Less space, less memory, fewer dependencies.
* Transparency. GUI hides internals, limits options.
* Similar between Unix-like systems. GUI tools seem to change every week.
* Remote management. SSH rocks.
* Everything is text. Configs, devices, output. CLI is natural complement.
* Pipes and scripts. One time is hard, a thousand times is easy.
* Only need a few tools. Grep, sed, awk, vi, cron.
* Text config files. Easy to version, share, and comment.
* Requires reading skills instead of clicking skills.
* Much faster when you know what you are doing.
