Ah, I see this post and remember that I was a HUGE CLI fan, that I converted every single tool I use to CLI. Which was insane and clearly not usable, I learned how to use them properly but yeah didn't work.
I guess I love WM's but not converting anything to CLI just to adjust my theme.
I hear you. I find that some tools work great for me as CLIs (e.g. git, sys admin tools), andothers are more just for fun that I don't find myself using as much as proper apps or web clients (i.e. Spotify, RSS readers, email). It really just depends for me.
