You could say this about many things. These commands make things convenient. Why do those things manually when software can do it for you? Example: Under the same logic I could say that there no good reason for dget. I can manually wget the .dsc, .tar.orig and .changes to accomplish the same thing... but why when I can just dget the .dsc? - -- Jordan Metzmeier -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJMQFdFAAoJEKj/C3qNthmTn5AQAMmaKvluxNTegvwDvy3KB9Zc JSTVmhEIHclLe5PGpcUAWeapxndblGqTUuOYNvdbSzbBc8pOJrMCmfmNEqDs8A0M oMYTcxJnTpbM/Wfn9IuehGMFIXfCc73h932Zt5XwNYHnPTjTfyQOFvm3ZNNNO31b wYAsmA6fEnPUWYt6fZpO7I1xIt5zCnSKVdLdgBwDEXcW8I7BemiJw5gTSsy7zafF USLkucuchyB1XrEffWwVpYBsWQu1A9ge5LZXquTUj6M42kiPovS38yL5ytw6k9rk uFb+CgFwsQ8rRh2ndxuBUDzDMf2bAnuOKAzfCldHyjkNVABhZ4iJchV8lU6RvEEy DoWj8DO8kAAX7qszeiPG6rviQ5S8uCYf4lp2QITGBq3Frly1JhEG0Kk8efSu0Rhh TEbPQ2bLVcDxpwqk6xFMQ5GC575UgZYP8qSEq8qbF6H+KEIFRsHwwrwtNjwV4heE E5X/hB9WnKBluXxdhMly48jEs8fjkYkz06DK+Ykk+t9Qu6y/9A+7js6D6Q3iVNy8 j8sf4hvKZtJC1WoLLAhpmsUsaurH+qFjf5j6480Xy9OweB5Dhhs3eaCrFZYKqHay khXPVfsyl7Md//UeDrQGLk2kGXf5fC2MwqIZsZ5dhki89yzY3Ra4iLBukN3E+JcW X8pzceBFE2AYGNn8h4AL =fod2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
