@b0rk ah! what an excellent question!
when we were kids, command lines were all that existed, so we got comfortable because we liked computers and this was the way to use them. not much of an anecdote but we felt we should offer it anyway, in a spirit of collaboration.
we'd like to encourage anyone following us who is comfortable with a command line to talk about their experiences too!
@irenes @b0rk this is bringing back memories of messing around with config.sys and autoexec.bat changes trying to free up enough memory to get some old DOS games to run. :)
