INCORRECT

I could make an app that has one command to do one thing, but uses a simple prompt

Or I could make an app that lets you choose between two commands. The first one is the same command as the first app, the other command is "quit".

The second is better. Why? Discoverability.

If vi is so "simple", then why can't people just sit down and use it? Why do I find myself always reaching for emacs if I'm in the terminal, or TextEdit if I'm not?

In the end, it's all preference. I abhor uglyfied cli-based pseudo apps like that. Shortcut keys are better. GUI is better still.

CLI works for simple command-like apps. Things like the destitutely bad PlayFair that I downloaded today.

Get this... you download it and build it on Mac OS X... the home platform of iTunes... AND IT CAN'T GET YOUR iTUNES KEY TO DECODE AACS. You have to have an iPod.

the only platform this *NIX app works right on is... Windows.

WHAT.

THE.

FUCK.

Sorry Jimmy, But you a 100% wrong about emacs and vi.
An editor simply has to do a certain job.
Only Emacs an Vim can do everything.
That is more important than it's UI.

PS: Their's nothing wrong with their look anyway...

Form is equal to function. Never above or below in priority.

Yes.
So what's wrong with it?
...it is about file editing...

Real Men use Real Editors.
