One reason I have to use the CLI is that GUIs usually missing pipes,
although I seriously already found GUIs for specific tasks that do. When
I wanted to use the CLI I would get me excited about pipes. For example
with:

grep 'Invalid user' < /var/log/messages | sed 's!.*: Invalid user \([^ ]*\) 
.*!\1!'|sort|uniq

I get to see what usernames recently have been tried to break into my
system. That happens recently quite often: people trying all kinds of
standard names together with standard passwords. I do not want to do
these things in a text viewer in a guy. ;)

Well... maybe I should have looked for a more obvious example. :)

Dirk.
