Some Linux commands have been around since time immemorial and are still widely used today. These commands work. They're both reliable and powerful. The problem is, if you're someone like me who isn't in the terminal all the time, they're not particularly intuitive. Most of the time, I use Linux through its graphical interface. I was never really interested in memorizing a bunch of complicated commands just to accomplish things that I could point and click at. When I do decide to open the terminal, I want command-line tools that don’t make things unnecessarily complicated.
