  I could think one advantage of CLI over GUI is that CLI saves Time. GUI may be easier to work with but it takes more time.

  CLI is more secure than GUI. Only professional or trained person can operate CLI

  Both have its own pros and cons
  
  as far as user friendliness is concerned then GUI is preferable, if you really wanna enjoy working on system then CLI is preferable.
  
  I am saying on the basis of my own experience, especially when it comes to working on raw server like Amazon EC2

  There ain't any specific pattern of opening files using CLI.It all depends on location of the file you wanna access.
  
  Are you Linux user ?

  Me no Windows user but I'll explain you how I create a folder.
  
  Suppose I wanna create a folder named "CE" in directory under Filesystem -> usr -> games.
  Then I'll type command in terminal something like this :
  cd /usr/games
  sudo mkdir -p CE
  
  Job done!
  
  Now,if you wanna copy any files to it use cp command or you wanna open it,then it basically depends on which format file is it.
