Elizabeth,

I'm working on similar. I assume they are in a terminal, so there isn't anywhere else to put it. So I am using the instruction "... input the command: xxxxxxxx"

I'd be interested to hear what others say, as this is my first gig writing for Linux users.

Best regards,
Ant

Hi all -

I've already Googled this one, and the results were:

"on the command line" = about 449,000 hits
"at the command line" = about 69,400 hits
"in the command line" = about 65,000 hits

I don't consider 449,000 sufficiently large to be authoritative! What do
Tech-WRLers think?
