for the uninitaited, it's selected excerpts from me attempting to start a client that controls background media player which streams to my shoutcast server, realizing it wasn't running, starting the media player daemon and shoutcast server, then attempting again to start the client which controls said media player, and playing a song

you can do so much from a console

ncurses is a great library. It itself extends unix programming in the console beyond the lackluster success of even the best DOS programs.

I,too, prefer cli.
