Giving credits to the programmers of
file-roller(1)

I'm really in a user interface mood right now. Only playing with the mouse meanwhile I'm making a backup of the long download of the massive multiplayer online role-playing game SWTOR

I mounted the source partition using thunar(1)
Then I physically mounted the drive in the tray where the destination was going to reside. After invoking file-roller I smoothly dragged the directory of SWTOR and dropped it into the Archiver which gave me the possibilities to make a tgz file of it and a dropdown where I could save tgz archive

Without lifting any more fingers than necessary I prepared the tape archive which would be gz compressed afterwards.

Since we're talking about a massive 56 GB it would take a while. As the progress bar slowly crept forward I did other things on other machines including Androids feeling content at the ease of which user interfaces bring sweet and smooth operations to us when we don't want to use any of our favorite shells
