@kr428 indeed, why not operate on that? does being able to script impair or get in the way of operating on displayed graphics? -

@lxoliva Even worse, looking at touch operated devices spreading all over there, CLI is even more difficult to use than the worst menu... :/ -

@lxoliva ... except for scripting and batch processing which, compared to interactive, per-image work, is a niche field of use at best. -

@lxoliva Looking at some partners of ours who are into media / photo processing, it seems in there CLI has fairly little relevance ... -

@lxoliva Well, I don't really see a difference here. If the computer is capable of displaying graphics, why not operate on that? -

@kr428 aah, I think I found the root of miscommunication! I'm not speaking of computer->user interface, but user->computer -

@lxoliva No. But rendering and operating on a bitmap is graphical interface in my opinion. ;) -

@lxoliva I know. Yet I claim there are things that can't effectively be done using textual interfaces. -

@reiter And are they actually being compliant with the GPL at the same time? -

@kr428 seems like we're miscommunicating. I don't deny GUIs are useful for some; I just wish they weren't ever the only interface -

@kr428 depends... do the arrows I prefer to use over a mouse when I want precision count as hotkeys? -

@lxoliva My point is: There _are_ use cases that _need_ UIs which aren't CLI or text-driven. ;) -

@lxoliva But it's not about menus. Ever tried, say, doing a lasso selection in an app like #gimp using CLI or hotkeys? ;) -

@kr428 right. but if you ever use hotkeys rather than clickityclick menus, you know where I'm coming from (it's a lesser form of scripting) -

@lxoliva at this point I want a workflow which is image-centric not technology centric. Scripting to me just is a technical detail here. ;)
