Does Mac-OS have a CLI or some other way to avoid using the GUI if one
so desires? I know many people who avoid buying the Mac for just this
reason. Not very surprisingly, some people can type specific functions
faster than they can implement them using a mouse etc. (Special
function keys using the 'squiggly' marked key don't count. They take
to long to fingure out or remember for the people to whom I'm
referring. If you have to use the mouse to read the menu bar, it has
already taken too long. Most of these friends of mine would prefer an
IBM or compatible for that reason.) I prefer to use the CLI myself as
many commands in AMIGADOS are quite flexible when used from the CLI.
(Maybe I'm just an old FART :-) )
