Hello again,
Having played around with different versions of Linux, it seems that the biggest impediment to uptake is a lack of GUI tools to perform tasks like maintaining servers and the like. I've since found a fairly good solution in the form of Webmin, which uses a browser interface to do these sort of jobs in a graphical environment. Webmin is written is a bunch of CGI programs written in Perl, and is an excellent tool.
However, having only recently discovered the wonderful world of Revolution, it would seem that there is a huge market for Rev applications that would perform tasks usually done through a command line. Is Rev able to drop stuff into a shell?
Cheers

Paul,
yes, and it does it pretty well, just check the shell() function and the open process function, pretty straight forward. The only concern is that linux folks are more into open source things they can ./configure-make-make-install-make-clean... if your software is pre-built they look suspicious... :D
