@istvan @Ashurbanipal @fedilist One invokes programs in a (proper) shell, rather than commands. I think most people don't describe a GUI as a "graphical shell" nowadays.

It's a lot like if someone describes a Unix workstation as a "PC": this is a Mac user, everything that is not a Macintosh is a "PC", a Macintosh is not a "PC" because they don't mean "personal computer" like everyone else, they mean "IBM-PC-compatible", despite IBM having been out of that game for decades and Macintoshes having spent a long time on exactly the same hardware as the Windows users.

Even the glass titty is before my time.
