@survey I like it when advanced software intentionally differentiates between advanced users and inadvanced users; E.g. having the basic settings in the settings window but then having a section labeled "Additional settings" or "Advanced settings".

Hello from the command line! I'm posting this from a terminal :)

Relating to current results 

@benjaminhollon @RL_Dane On a more computerized device, you couldn't do that unless the feature was built-in :( Here's to DIY!

@RL_Dane @benjaminhollon Oh absolutely. More robust, manual and "hackable" to list a few advantages.
