Copying/pasting what to type in a shell is far easier than writing a
description of what to point and click at. Also, it helps to know how to
admin a system using a shell for those occasions you need to do it, such
as with remote systems or when you have to write scripts. Having said
that, using Synaptic, aptitude, or Adept manager is not mutually
exclusive with using the command line. If you like using GUI tools,
that's fine but the command line isn't inferior in any way and in some
cases, it is superior.
