I must spend at least 50% of my time in the CLI, while most people can go their entire lives using computers now and never use the CLI even once.

@lauren I guess it's about the same here. I use what's most efficient for me. I'll grab the GUI file manager when I want to see the directory structure and drag things around. But the CLI is faster for most things, especially with command recall and auto-complete.

@lauren Oh, and I love the feature of the GUI file manager where I can right click on a folder and open a terminal in that folder.

Best is to have both worlds in parallel. Some things are easier done with a GUI, for others a command line is much faster and easier to use.
