hi libbitcoin people! I installed libbitcoin-node, and I'm looking for how to control/access it. does it have some kind of GUI perhaps, like bitcoin-qt, or a CLI like bitcoin-cli? the docs for libbitcoin-node seem to suggest there's no CLI https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-node/wiki but i'm also not seeing a GUI

Blocks are not downloaded in order, it is highly concurrent. You can see what blocks are being downloaded using the protocol log context, but this will slow down sync, which is much faster than the console. The console does not block the node, but it does consume resources.
