When you're looking at a directory using a graphical interface, a lot:
- You have to open or at least switch to a different window.
- You have to type or copy and paste the directory name.
- You won't get the same data displayed by the graphical interface
  (which you'd expected it to print if it supported printing).


If or when one wants to use a command line, that's fine, but when
one it using a graphic interface, it should still support printing
directory listings.
