That's because they're used to Windows which has a completely broken command line. I've been using Linux for three years, coming from an entirely Windows background and frankly the CLI interface in Linux seemed like a huge step forward to me and was something that attracted me to the platform - as an ordinary musician who was interested in learning programming. Do you honestly _know_ any 'ordinary' creative people? Contradiction in terms IMO. :) -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
