Terminal provides a Bash shell command line, with access to all of the usual cryptic Unix commands, which are generally considered beyond the capabilities of elementary-school children. However, there are always exceptions. A good starting point is [http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/CommandLineIntro/WebHome Introduction to the Gnu/Linux Command Line] from FLOSS Manuals.

Midnight Commander is a character mode file manager that can run directly in Terminal. Install it with

sudo yum install mc

Be sure to configure Lynx-like motion in '''Options:Configuration'''. This lets you navigate the directory tree with the cursor keys.

The user can configure Sugar either in the UI, or using sugar-control-panel from the command line.

One of the most requested commands is

setxkbmap ''keyboard''

where ''keyboard'' can be us (US English), dvorak, fr (French), and so on. See [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Keyboards olpc:Keyboards] for more.
