When I write a perl script or C program I use 'perl -d' or gdb respectively
from inside vi. My first unix job was on the IBM RT, then AIX PS/2 1.0, then
IBM RS6000. Using tty and the command line is important to me as a developer
and as a sys admin it is vital since I guarantee I have ssh access to my
machines and only resort to GUI (VPN and RDP or X) when there is absolutely no
alternative.
