I know that GUI does not cover most of functionalities, for good reasons - being specialized to task (like files app), it provides more fine-grained experience.

Yet, I find that there are common commands which is terminal-only, or not faithfully implemented. for instance,

  • Commands like apt update/apt upgrade might be needed, as GUI may not allow enough interactions with it.
  • I heard some immutable distros require running commands for rollbacks.

These could cause some annoyance for those who want to avoid terminal unless necessary (including me). Hence, I bet there are terminal emulators which restricts what commands you could run, and above all, present them as buttons. This will make you recall the commonly used commands, and run them accordingly. Is there projects similar to what I describe? Thanks!

    Are you perhaps looking for something like this? Or something else.

    That said, learning the terminal commands is a much better path. You’ll develop a richer understanding of the various tools with repetition.

      I already am quite familiar with terminal, and am aware of how to handle it. I do have issues that I am using plain old bash, but it’s not unfamiliarity that is my problem.

      It’s more that there are common commands that I am dealing with, I (somehow) don’t like entering it in terminal format.

      About warp, that seems roughly what I want, but the AI part irks me. I dunno, I gotta look more dseply.
