Ars Technica heeft een artikel gebouwd over de Linux Command Prompt. Elk besturingssysteem heeft er wel eentje (zelfs MacOS) en ze kunnen errug handig zijn. Hier een stukkie:
Linux supports the notion of a command line or a shell for the same reason that only children read books with only pictures in them. Language, be it English or something else, is the only tool flexible enough to accomplish a sufficiently broad range of tasks. Reviewers constantly mutter about the "arcane command line" -- it's only arcane because they haven't had a reason to learn the Linux command-line environment. Is this to say that the command line is for everyone, or even most people? Certainly not. It exists because not everybody needs the fancy graphical tools, not everybody appreciates them, and not every task can be accomplished through a GUI.
