    CLI is in many ways still more powerful than any GUI for the simple fact that arguments can be passed and programs can be made to work seemlessly with one another through the use of piping and output redirection.

    The original movie was great, but I didn't realize that it was up to number 10 already. Looks like I've got nine movies to watch now.
