Everything you see in the graphical world is run from command line. The only difference is that it's not visible. For an example, if you type "eclipse" in the terminal window in ubuntu (assuming you have eclipse installed) it will run the program. You can also look in the applications menu under programming and click on the icon. Do you suppose that the computer sees clicking on an icon the same as running a line of code in command line? I do. Admittedly it does take time to learn, but you have more flexability and knowledge if you do take the time. Which is why I can't stand windows. You can't customize anything really, plus it runs at a fraction of the speed linux does.
