Computer applications usually operate from within an application window. However, this was not always the case.  Computer repair programs used to be managed through the use of a command line interface. This is a method of control that is still available on modern computers. In the case of a Mac computer, the command line interface comes in the form of the Terminal application. As far as a Windows 7 computer is concerned, the Terminal equivalent is the Command Prompts program.  Starting a “Terminal” session in Windows 7, can be done in a few simple steps with Windows 7 support. The instructions laid out by the Windows 7 support team for this purpose are as follows.
