Hey, sorry guys. Forum rules says we're not supposed to use acronyms.
Here's some I used:
GUI = Graphical User Interface. (there's buttons instead of all typing. Think Windows instead of DOS - Disk Operating System). Includes graphical aids like buttons and/or menus/ and/or dropdowns and/or trees, etc. A two-dimensional area with interactable subareas (technically it COULD be 3-D).
CLI = Command Line Interface. No buttons or anything graphical. All typing.
ls = Command line command for LiSting what's in the current directory (folder or registry key, the current path). Type "ls" then enter.
iso ~ intentional double meaning: It means both the "International Standardization Organization" and the Greek work "iso" which means "same," since that is the goal of the organization. The ISO 9660 standard is a filesystem for optical discs, so images of optical discs compliant to this standard are often called isos. Note: not all CD images can be rightfully called an iso, because only some CDs comply to this standard. Example: you can't make a true iso of an audio CD. You can dump it and name the image file *.iso, but it won't be an iso.
cd = change directory or compact disc (as in optical), depending on context
WINE = Wine Is Not an Emulator
chntpw = CHange NT PassWord
AVG = Anti-Virus by Gritsoft
OS = Operating System
sudo = Super User DO (from what I've heard)
I don't think we have to be THAT picky, but I wanted to clear the air, especially for my first post.
