I agree with most all of what John Stevenson says..especially
Advantages of command line:
- it is VERY quick once learned
- easy to write scripts
- can work remotely from slow computer over ssh -X connection
- interaction with operating system commands and other software e.g.
imagemagick, GMT
- full history of what has been done
- easy to repeat previous commands
It is distressing to think that I might have to stick with GRASS 6.x if they dont take into consideration all of us using ssh connections...this is really a huge advantage GRASS has over other packages
