"Death of the command line revisited Five years ago I wrote a little blurb called Death of the command line. As it happened, that article was misunderstood by many who read it - I don't know if it was my fault or theirs, but somehow many readers ended up thinking I was either predicting the demise of CLI's (Command Line Interfaces) or hoping for that demise or both. Nothing could have been farther from the truth. I remain a big fan of CLI's and use them daily. And yet, just five years later and still at risk of angering yet another batch of folk who won't read carefully, I'm going to suggest that predicting the death of the CLI may not be such a bad bet after all. What triggered this was that I happened to be doing a bit of editing to another article - Using the shell (Terminal) in Mac OS X. As I made some corrections, I thought "Nobody cares about this nowadays". That's not entirely true. That particular page still gets five thousand or more visitors every month and has even been "plussed" a few times, so obviously a few people still care. On the other hand, in the greater world of folks I run into daily, nobody uses the CLI and most don't even know that they could. But why would you use the CLI?"

This is all a bit of fun, but all the same. someone please give me the link to the vote counts - I would love to know what the runners up are to some of these. (Yes I am the sort of person that also looks at Ubuntu and Debian popularity-contest results.) There are some well-deserved victories and predictable horrors here: I think 'worse is better' applies to some of these winners.
