Yeah, I recently had to make a bunch of payload files for programming some devices, all the files were mostly the same with only a couple parameters changed. I wrote a script to do it and was done in 20 minutes. That would have taken hours in the GUI. Then when I was putting the files onto flash drives the data protection crap my company uses was blocking part of the transfer because of the extension on the files. So I wrote another script to change the extensions, copy, and change it back. Saved more hours.
