@JoeyCarcinoma heh, i understand, potentially this is an awesome tool, like most CLI, but right now i'm fighting with a site trying to figure out whats going where, and I'm at a point where I think they intentionally obfuscated things to make it difficult, either that or just a very complex site, or i'm a mouse pushing retard; i'll find out which later :P Just saying I could see if people get frustrated sometimes.

@axel1973w It's like those morons who would object "why do we have to learn algebra, I don't need to use it" in school, such people subsequently end up enemployed. Similarly, these retards who criticise this kind of technology probably only ever use the internet to check facebook or something equally inane. Basically, retards whose existence in the world is pointless.

a common problem. i love to drop lots of comments and remarks in my codes so later in weeks or months i can quickly get back in. so if u dont want to brainstorm later, do a little more work now by entering more and easy to understand remarks.

Thats no rubbish. Thats just ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY. Simple Mouse-Pushers just dont understand it. More sophisticated users can at least realize its potential and then start to learn more about these tools to maybe automate things or solve other puter problems. if u dont want to use command line interface, just dont. go pushing your mouse then.
