Fast Fabric includes both a Textual User Interface (TUI) menu system as well as
command line tools. The TUI presents the menus in a typical order of execution
for a new fabric install, hence simplifying fabric installation for new users. All
operations available in the TUI can also be accomplished via the command line.
The command line tools are designed to permit customer specific scripts to invoke
the command line tools.
