I don''t get it really.

Haiku is supposed to be a GUI based OS, with none of the gludge, dust,
and cobwebs of the 1970's.  Why would we stuff our system full of text
based help files, that noone but geeks could find, nor even know how
to use?   People in the haiku comunity have bent over backwards to get
a working native web browser.  Use it!

The same goes for the preponderance for commandline tools.  They
shouldn't be there unless they are required for basic system operation
IMHO.
