Hello, I'm from the Hard Core Command Line People Anti-Defamation League!

This is all just a big misunderstanding Mr. Petey. You see, we have no problem whatsoever with the unwashed masses playing with their silly GUIs, we just want to make sure no one talks of getting rid of our precious direct-access compilers.

Oh, and this is not "hardcore" by any stretch of the imagination. FRC programming is rarely low-level enough that you have to truly understand the hardware, nor is it abstract enough that you're working on a massive system with hundreds of unit-tests between you and a final product.

This post was written in vi and uploaded via a TCP/IP stack I whipped up on the fly by waving magnets around my harddrive with amazing precision. The vi part was much harder.
