My experience with Windows indicated
that you should ALWAYS have a command line so you can fix whatever shit
the GUI is spewing.
Unfortunately, the Windows command line often requires the use of Registry
edits, with those cryptic UUID keys, instead of simple, straightforward
*nix-style text config files. This makes things way too fiddly and error-
prone, even for Windows experts.
I miss the days when each program had its own .ini file which could be fixed if you did something stupid.
