I love that CLIs are getting a second wind.

I just wish there were more solutions to add simple things like copy and paste to them.

As though they were more a derivative of the text box I type in right now. And less to MS-DOS I grew up with.

Outside of that, agreed. Eliminate GUI as a blocker.

It's surprising how that odds still an unsolved problem. That and trashcan integration

On MacOS, this is actually solved with the following native clis: pbcopy, pbpaste, trash.

I must be a fossil living under a rock, but: were they ever gone? As the amount of new CLI based applications I install on a monthly basis is always far more than the amount of new GUI based applications.

I think a lot of new developers used GUIs very exclusively for a very long time. Agentic workflows and Claude code have brought CLI tools to the forefront again.

A good example of this that I've noticed is a lot of newer devs were using GitHub Desktop or VS Code to manage git operations, but Claude gave them peek under the hood and now they're using it directly a bit more. Claude Code is a great gateway drug to CLI and TUI addiction
