How did people here learn GUIs

This is going from the general to a specific, but when designing GUIs,
it's important to use a toolkit that enables error messages to be
returned in clipboard-enabled format, so users can copy error messages
and use them to search the internet for solutions. An inability to do
this should be reported to the GUI toolkit authors as a severe
accessibility and usability bug.

I've published an article on this topic so won't repeat here
everything that I said there.
