Adding the checker application in the users own menu lets them remember it exists, and what it is called for next time.Īnd in this case, having to install an application is not extra steps.

Don't expect the same UI to be equally suitable for both occasional users and full time IT professionals.Ī command that you might use once a year will not get remembered either. Also encouraging people to type in commands they found on the internet is dangerous. And people will inevitably have to search online to find out the exact syntax to use. It is a totally unfamiliar type of interface to what people have ever seen. It gives a poor feedback as to what, if anything, has actually happened. It offers no clues as to what options are available. It is totally intolerant of any tiny mistake. Regarding non IT users and the terminal, the reason I pointed this out is many IT people are not into usability, and don't realise that the command line is a complete no no for other users. but that will be something to implement for the next version of the software. However, since it is good to have choice - especially for anyone dreading the thought of white text on black backgrounds - I will add GUI options to the website once the new website is built.Ī plus if we can open Software Boutique to install software from the webpage ( apt:// links?). It has the potential to perform tasks a lot faster. It is a myth that you need to be an IT guru to use the terminal. If anyone really wants to be sure the checksum file wasn't tampered with, the GPG Keys method can only be reasonably performed in the terminal.The sha256sum utility is pre-installed and can be completed in two steps.There's too many ways to install software right now ( sudo apt, Synaptic, GNOME Software) until Software Boutique is capable of installing software outside its curated collection.
It needs to be installed - extra steps.I only see two problems with suggesting a GUI first for Ubuntu MATE: The website is actually getting a revamp, and improving these instructions for all OSes is one thing on the list.
