command line interface (A form of interface between the operating system and the user in which the user types commands, using a special command language. Although systems with command-line interfaces are usually considered more difficult to learn and use than those with graphical interfaces, command-based systems are usually programmable; this gives them flexibility unavailable in graphics-based systems that do not have a programming interface); command prompt (An interface between the operating system and the user in which the user types command language strings of text that are passed to the command interpreter for execution) |
