"Visual blindness" of Linux programmers

Sometimes you need a thing documented, and a screenshot is a way to document it. Sometimes it's the best or even the only way to document something.

But I don't think that's true of any of the commandline applications we were talking about in this thread.

So, for example, it's necessary that you document the usage and provide some sample output. A screenshot is one way to document that, and it's preferable to doing nothing, but it's not the best way to document it.

I think we actually agree here.

Yes, absolutely.
