3.7.2The ski Command Window

ski’s Command Window is simpler, as shown in Figure 3-17.There are no menus, buttons, or Command History. Instead, you enter commands when you see a * prompt in the 4-line Command Window at the bottom of the screen. ski displays its responses in this window as well. The window scrolls so that information lost off the top of the window may be recov- ered using the up and down arrows on your keyboard (for Emacs fans, Ctrl-P and Ctrl-N serve the same function). As a typing shortcut, if you hit the enter/return key, ski will repeat the last command you entered.
