Tahoe-LAFS featured in “Why the command-line is not usable”

[John]

Long time lurker on this project and I'm hoping it succeeds.

Hmm, sorry, how can anyone claim to be an "expert" reviewer if you don't 
know how to do command line?

GUI isn't the answer for everything. Just because you don't know how to 
do command line functions doesn't make command line bad.
