You can use even '!' to recall other commands in history. For example, you can type '!p<Enter>' and it will call the last command starting with 'p', without having to search for it (and if you want, you can use CTRL+r) You can use '!!' to recall the last command, or '!-#' for the other ones. You can define single arguments, like !-#:2, to call only parts of a old command. With bash, you can repeat instructions (using 'for', 'while', and so on) and use some basic logic to determine if launching them. You can call easily any program installed in the computer, or in other ones, too. Really, are you joking? ;) Do you know that you can use the '<Tab>' key to auto-fill a command? isn't this useful? I tried to use the windows command line sometimes, but I found it so slow and uncorfortable, that I thought that noone can use it. I really don't understand what you want to say with this topic! p.s. if you want a tip, leave using desktop manager and begin using the command line.
