I said that Unix commands are named non-intuitively, the parameters are inconsistent and error prone, and there is no prompting. The fact that there's a GUI for some of this stuff has nothing to do with that statement. I wish for once somebody would answer one of my comments with something relevant. > I think Apple has proved that. Remember, Mac OS X > *is* unix. So is it true that "OS/400 ease of use beats Unix hands down. > No discussion, no argument, no quibble."? Were we talking about Macintoshes? No, and you know it. This is of course the definition of a quibble: warping the discussion simply to support an otherwise unsupportable statement. This is the sort of thing lawyers love and people trying to get work accompilshed get sick of. And I'm sick of it. You've proven me wrong on one thing at least, James. There's ALEAYS someone who has the time to quibble. I don't.
