Toward an Adaptive Command Line Interface
Proceedings of the Conference on Human-Computer Interfaces, 1997Co-Authors: Brian Davison, Haym HirshAbstract:This paper explores different mechanisms for predicting the next command to be used for the UNIX Command-Line shell. We have collected command histories form 77 people and have calculated the predictive accuracy for each of five methods over this dataset. The algorithm with the best performance has an average online predictive accuracy of up to 45%.

gracoli a graphical command line user interface
Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work, 2013Co-Authors: Pramod VermaAbstract:Command Line Interface (CLI) is the most popular and basic user interface to interact with computers. Despite its simplicity, it has some limitations in terms of user experience. For example, sometimes it is hard to understand and interpret the textual output of the command. In this paper we describe the limitations of command line interfaces and propose Gracoli1: A graphical command line interface that takes advantage of both text-based interface and graphical user interface to provide better user experience and perform complex tasks. We demonstrate some of the useful applications and features of Gracoli. Sometime such a hybrid system provides and combines the strengths of CLI and GUI to perform specific tasks. We explore some useful applications of Gracoli to create a new kind of user experience. Command line interface makes accessibility faster and Graphical User-Interface makes output more interactive and understandable.

Published In Integrating a Command Shell Into a Web Browser
2015Co-Authors: Robert Miller, Robert C. Miller, Brad Myers, Brad A. MyersAbstract:The transition from Command-Line interfaces to graphi-cal interfaces has resulted in programs that are easier to learn and use, but harder to automate and reuse. Another transition is now underway, to HTML interfaces hosted by a web browser. To help users automate HTML in-terfaces, we propose the browser-shell, a web browser that integrates a command interpreter into the browser’s Location box. The browser-shell’s command language is designed for extracting and manipulating HTML and text, and commands can also invoke local programs. Command input is drawn from the current browser page, and command output is displayed as a new page. The browser-shell brings to web browsing many advantages of the Unix shell, including scripting web services and creating pipelines of web services and local programs. A browser-shell also allows legacy Command-Line pro-grams to be wrapped with an HTML/CGI interface that is graphical but still scriptable, and offers a new shell interaction model, different from the conventional type-script model, which may improve usability in some re-spects.

learning and retention with a menu and a command line interface
Computers in Human Behavior, 1998Co-Authors: Ashley G Durham, Henry H EmurianAbstract:Abstract Within the context of a computer-based tutoring system, 36 participants initially learned sequences of commands to satisfy common file, directory, and process manipulations with UNIX 1 . Each of three task objectives required correctly entering four lines of command sequences with one of three different interface conditions. Learning occurred with a menu interface (recognition), a command line interface (recall), and a combination menu-command line interface (recognition-plus-recall). The criterion of task mastery was three successive help-free and error-free iterations through an interface condition. After a four-week interval with no interface exposure, the task was repeated. The results showed that performance on both menu and command line interfaces, as evidenced by requests for help, error frequency, and trials to task mastery, required relearning after the period of disuse. The command line interface was generally associated with higher levels of performance than the menu interface, especially during retention testing. The components of the combined interface interacted, but transfer of learning between them was incomplete.
