clunky at first. I haven't really used the terminal
since I had to back in high school for a class, and
even then it was only for a bit. The thing I always
remembered was ls, because I kept forgetting what
files were in the directory. Without the gui, I had
difficulty remember what was in a given folder. I
realize as I'm writing this that I probably could
have switched from the coral_reef folder to the
lab_terminal folder in one shot as opposed to
constantly using cd .. to go to each parent directory
one at a time. If I could keep track of the path
names properly, I can imagine moving files, especially
in folders with lots of eils, and going to different
folders would be faster using the terminal than with
a desktop and mouse. It'd probably make organizing
large numbers of files convenient. My desktop
definitely needs that.
