It's sometimes difficult to tell the difference between being right, while explaining poorly and being wrong, while too stubborn to see it. If you've ever bothered to argue with me, to make me see sense, I thank you sincerely.

Prasanna over 9 yearswhy do you think cmd should be faster? In the background the process of copy-paste are the same either with GUI or with cmd. With GUI, the user gets to know what is happening (progress, file being copied, estimated time of completion etc.,) whereas in cmd it does not shown. I'm not convinced that cmd copy-paste action is faster than the one with GUI
