Dave, there is an article on the Internet that you must read. Here is the link: http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
Thank you for the article. However, I think you have missed my point. I am not looking for Linux to be like Windows. Nor am I advocating any approach that Windows does, or in favour of making any changes to make Linux in any way like Windows.
All I am saying is that I am an ex-Windows user who is trying to find points of references so that I can understand how Linux works. Actually, a long time ago I used to work regularly on an Irix system, and Mac comes in and out of my life depending on my job. But as I've been a regular user of Windows since, well, since there was Windows, I can't help the fact that is has significantly shaped my perception of how computers work in general.
Ahhhh !!!! Just harken back to (glorious, IMHO) IRIX, & you should be off to the races. Many common Linux command line commands are named for their IRIX equivalents, so the familiarity should return quickly.
