以MsWindow為代表之視窗介面大幅度地改進了傳統的命令列介面,但它們本身卻仍未支援命令列介面的許多重要功能,本論文分析這兩種介面的功能,並提出改進視窗介面的建議:(1)監控並掌握標準輸出資訊,(2)加速一般指令之取用,(3)補足指令參數及管線化功能,(4)改進線上批次處理的操作。(5)添加視窗化的遠端操控能力。我們依前述理念實作了一套使用介面,這個雛型系統以視窗方式操控遠端的UNIX平台,並整合檔案傳輸的功能。
Window user interfaces such as MsWindow improve traditional command-line user interfaces. However, they do not directly support several important functions of command-line user interfaces. In this paper, further refinements for window user interfaces are proposed: (1) monitoring and ulitilizing standard output, (2) speeding up the invokation of general commands, (3) supporting both command arguments and piping capabilities, (4) facilitating online batch processing, and (5) supporting window-style remote control. According to above suggestions, a prototype for refined window user interface has been implemented. It operates in window-style to control remote UNIX platform and integrates FTP functions.
