It does; there's a lot more work when you're to draw bitmaps in various formats, calculate gradients, etc. over just rendering a fixed-spacing bitmap-cached font (which is often hardware-accelerated). Also, X is probably fucked as it's always going to be kinda slow. (And GTK is something else. I can run an errand as I wait for it to fully refresh.)
It's all in what you choose to draw. Depending on the speed of your terminal emulator, a natively graphical program could draw
faster than the text-mode version.
I don't quite understand what you meant. Of course you can;
you can pest it with stupid icons and bullshit.
I meant you
can not add them. Can refrain from adding them.
Oh, so you have to be a developer to use the command line or an OFM? Well then, I'm a lazy dev.
You have to be an OFM developer to be personally affected by the ease of embedding a command line into your OFM.
