Sell a man a fish when he really needs to know how to fish himself, andyou're ripping him off. Then too, there are times when he needs you tothrow him a line. CLIX ('command line interface for OS X') makes it easier to harness thepower of Unix. It becomes both a fish to buy and a series of lessons inhow to fish, and ultimately can become a handy work of reference. It doesn't try to rip you off - it tries to teach you, so you becomemore independent and don't need that line thrown at you all the time. The CLIX package includes a starter command database file with over 1,500(one thousand five hundred - yes, you read it right) system commands forinvestigating your system status, for cleaning out your junk files, forgetting at secret settings for the Dock, the Finder, and all of yourmost used applications - and all sorted for easy access, any way youwish. You also gain access for the first time to the tens of thousands offiles in your BSD subsystem. If it can be done in OS X, it can be done in CLIX; if it can't be donein CLIX, it can't be done. And most importantly, the CLIX system is infinitely extensible: you canadd to it at any time, and in any way you please.
