User Interfaces
Command Line Interfaces
Users enter text
instructions and the computer system
provides results or feedback as text
This type of interface is found in older
systems or for devices with limited storage
because it requires little memory.
Command have to be typed precisely
because the interface only recognizes
certain commands. Usually a help menu for
users lists and explains the acceptable
commands.
• Advantage is that it is quick and straight
forward to execute the commands
Application Area
Examples: Disk operating Systems, Mouse-
System Power Panel, Command Prompt,
UNIX systems
Menu Driven Interface
This type of interface displays a list of options as
a menu.
Selecting one of these options will either trigger
a command or display another menu with further
options to choose from
Menu driven interfaces are easier to use than CLI
but take more time as you have to through the
menu structure each time to carry out a
command, rather than typing the command
directly in to the system
