So in a good Windows file manager here is how you can fumble around looking for the correctly named file:
press a single key
enter part of a name
get a fuzzy match for any file on your system in a separate tab (which you can return to later if needed)
sort by path/size/image width to filter further
press a key to preview file content or copy a file or delete it
All that with immediate visual feedback
What's your terminal day solution to this?

Or you can't, it just silently deleted the wrong files and you're non the wiser since you don't even see that your filter mismatched
> With the terminal you can just take 2 minutes to write a burner script and use it and be done in seconds.
How would you pick the audio times? In audacity you can easily play on cut thresholds to hear that they're correct, what's your "seconds" solution to that?
