Pros and ConsAny command shell has characteristic capabilities and limitations, and there is often a love/hate relationship between expert users and the shells of their favorite command-driven software. In the case of the NeXtMidas, having several different shell modes of operation helps to silence critics; however, numerous operating "features" derive from the design and implementation of the NeXtMidas shell. This is true whether or not the user explicitly "enters" the NeXtMidas shell before issuing commands because that shell manages the execution of both interactive and one-shot commands. One of the best features of the NeXtMidas shell is that you
