So do I.  I love the Mac interface.  Honest, I do.  But, much as I hate
to admit it, it is not perfect.  In fact, no derivative of it (in my
opinion) can be perfect.  Sometimes a command line is preferable.  I
would like a single command line window in the Finder.  Give it a menu
option and command key equivalent.  The window could function not too
dissimilarly from the UNIX csh.

It would come with standard commands (ls, cp, mv, more, jobs, ...).
People can write their own routines that can be called from it with the
same type of parameters as normal UNIX programs.

Can you say "The Best of Both Worlds?"  OK, how much flame am I going
to get now?

P.S. Don't try to reply to this account.  It should be going away Mon
     depending on how prompt the systems people are upstairs.
