Don’t need to. Type “man «cmd»” to see all the details of the options
available for any external command. I do this all the time.
I’m glad any modern Linux distribution – I use Fedora KDE on all my
computers – offers both paths for almost anything you could do on your
computer, and unless I specifically opt to do so, I literally –
literally literally – never have to touch the command line.
Also, running a command line through a GUI terminal emulator lets you take
advantage of cut/copy/paste between windows, which is a feature not
available on a pure-command-line system.
