Why I hate UNIX

The Why I hate UNIX Page

This is a page which contains random entries about what sucks in Unix, weather it is Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris...

It's mainly used as a reminder what we should do better before World Domination with Voyager [tm]

Keyboard Layout in Xorg. Why does it have to be so hard...
SSH & Terminals/TERMCAP: Aaaaaaaaaaargh (backspace, delete...)
copy/paste: Qt way, GTK way, X way - copying highlighted text to the clipboard is very annoying
unix commands like cp and mv (cla loves the good old CMD commands!)
no consistent GUI concept (lets stick to CUA and/or anything advanced to that, possibly enhance them !)
drivers or settings compiled into the kernel (uurg - stoneage)
mount a floppy/CD(/USB stick ?) to access it
no drive letters or something adequate (something like this must be there for those being used to it)
forward slashes in file names (this is a killer for those being used to backslashes)
case sensitive filenames (what is this good for ?)
confusing directory tree with too many standard directories (requires too much knowledge, better use less standard dirs, better use env vars to point to certain directories !!!)

Why not thinking also about the good items: (possibly we make another page of this?):

boot/driver messages logged to a file (won-der-ful ! want this!)
symbolic links (not implemented as files like in wincrap, but in the filesystem, or maybe with FUSE)
mount partitions to empty directories (but: better go for FUSE to have something TVFS alike)
piping output of commands into env vars (shell feature)
