to accomplish complex actions."

That's what I love about GUIs:
They make simple tasks easier,
and complex tasks impossible. -- -- John William... - Make plans as complex as necessary,
but give simple orders... - Meyer's Law: It is a simple task to make things complex,
but a complex task to make them simple... - It is simple to make things complex, but complex to make things simple.
Meyer's 3rd... - Only she who attempts the ridiculous can accomplish
the impossible... - Never make anything simple and efficient when
a way
can be found to make it complex and wonderful...
