This article discusses different types of computer shells and user interfaces. A shell provides access to an operating system's services and acts as the interface between the user and the kernel. Command-line interfaces and graphical user interfaces are the most common types. While command-line interfaces allow for some tasks to be performed more quickly, graphical user interfaces offer simplicity and ease-of-use, making them more suitable for common users and tasks like image editing. Many modern systems support both interfaces.

(June 2010) A shell in computing provides a user interface for access to an operating system's services. "Shell" is also used loosely to describe applications, including software that is "built around" a particular component, such as web browsers and email clients that are, in themselves, "shells" for T!" rendering engines. The term "shell" in computing, being the outer layer between the user and the operating system #ernel, is synonymous with the general word "shell". $enerally, operating system shells use either a command%line interface &'"() or graphical user interface &$U(). !ac *S and +indows are widely used operating systems with $U(s. ,-.,/.,0. The optimum choice of user interface depends on a computer's role and particular operation. '"(s allow some operations to be performed faster, rearranging large bloc#s of data for e1ample. '"(s may be best for servers which are managed by e1perts2 administrators, while $U(s offer simplicity and ease%of%use and would be more appropriate for image editing, 'A33, and des#top publishing. (n practice, many systems provide both user interfaces which can be called on a command%by%command basis. +indows is the most obvious e1ample with its "command prompt" and normal "windows" mode. (t's no e1aggeration to say that both Apple !acintosh *S and !icrosoft +indows have revolutionised home computing by helping relatively ine1perienced users to interface with a P' using a $U(. (n e1pert systems, a shell is a piece of software that is an "empty" e1pert system without the #nowledge base for any particular application. ,4.
