    Isn’t it what happens on Mac? I’m told there is a command line on there, but I’ll be damned if I’ve ever met* a Mac addict who’s heard of it, let alone used it.

      I’m certainly biased, but we use macOS at work and nearly everyone is familiar with the terminal. We’re developers though, but even our less technical people (product owners and whatnot) know what it is and what it can do.

      But yeah, I wouldn’t be opposed to turning on a dev option to enable it though. I use it every day, but most don’t need to (even our devs could configure commands in their IDE).
