You mean like DOS?

Yes, yes, okay. :)

But you have to admit shell commands and scripting *were* an essential part
of DOS well into the Windows years. I still use them for things such as
mass-renaming of files. And lots of those commands are pretty close to Unix
ones ... so much so that FreeBSD has added a number of useful commands
(such as DIR) that emulate DOS behavior.
