#include <windows.h>

What do you guys think? I wrote a program in C at work that will grab some data from various places and put it in a better format, but it's all done from the command prompt.

Ever try explaining to people how to use the command prompt for the first time? Not fun. I can't do that for everyone that wants to use it.

Easiest thing for them would be a windows applications where you can enter values into fields rather than command line arguments, but this would take much longer.

What does /prog/think?

So I gather by your definition the ``intelligent'' approach is wasting a few hours a month reading man pages to figure out the arguments for some utilities you use once a year.

Good thing people don't put up with that shit anymore. There's a hell for people like you in which each door, tap and switch has a nice man page. But hey, on the bright side, you can script them!
