I agree and interrestingly, you want to automate, gain time, but not to ide all complexity neither.
Otherwise you may not even know how to do the stuff at all anymore. A GUI tool will end up like that. You don't know anymore how it works and the time it is not available or it doesn't support what you need... You are lost.
While the command line and writting script shell and program compose well and you can always check back what the script/program is doing if needed.
Another huge producitivity boost is to ensure you have all theses programs/script and also all that knowledge correctly organized and available when you need it.
This is exactly what I was referring to :). I see far too many people clicking around Putty.

You are very right!
Maybe I will write a blog titled "Efficient developers version control all their stuff" :)
