<title>The shell environment</title>
<para>The <firstterm>shell environment</firstterm>, also called a terminal or console, is an interface where you type commands in to a command processor (the <firstterm>shell</firstterm>), and view the results of the command on your screen. Windows users may know this environment as a "Command Prompt". The shell environment is an essential part of administrating any Linux system. Adélie Linux is designed to make the shell environment easy to use while still providing you the ability to view and edit nearly every detail about your system.</para>
