How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Command Line, Thurs. July 31st 6:30-8pm @ Free Geek (back door)
The command line is an interface, or way of interacting with a computer, which is text-only (as opposed to a graphical user interface, or GUI).
When using the command line, you type commands at a prompt (a.k.a. cursor).
This free workshop is a good idea for beginners interested in learning programming, computer building, or for those who like idea of learning some basic finesse with their digital friend.
No command-line experience is required
You need a basic familiarity with using computers (nothing fancy)
You can either be new to free and open source, or experienced with it
