Hi, everybody Recently, a guy noticed that I was using it and asked why? For me it because in Linux many things are done through the terminal because Linux has many different desktop environments
He also compared terminal commands with cheat codes in GTA and other games, he understands what benefits you take from them, but not from terminal commands
Well, graphical people like to see GUIs. That’s why the POSIX landscape is mostly populated with tech/IT people… not everyone is comfortable with a terminal.
And GUIs are good for a lot of things, even for IT/programming related stuff. Just take a look at DIE (Detect It Easy). Sure, you can do all that via a terminal, no doubt, but it’s just so much more compact if all of the reports regarding the scanned file are placed in boxes and menus. You need this? OK, it’s in that button. You need that? Sure, there is a drop down menu for that. Just think of the clutter all of this could make if I use the terminal. Sure, I could pass this or that option each time I need something new, but why do that when you can scan once and just do a few clicks and get other results that may require a bunch more options passed through the terminal.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ll do it if there’s nothing else, or if it’s easier that way (through the terminal, which in most cases, yes, I do agree that it is), but having such a good GUI for this tool is something that I actually love.
Oh, and a tool like Rufus is also a much needed GUI tool in Linux. Sure, there are tools like that, but not as good as Rufus, especially when creating Windows installation media.
