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.
