How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Command Line,
Thurs. Sept. 4th 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.
