Why is it that Linux is command based and Windows is GUI based

[volker_muehlhaus]

I do not accept the premise of the question! Whatever the GUI experience is, in either system, contriving mouse clicks to be the alias for a command string is something they all have. Even now, however deeply the command is buried in a GUI experience, one can still find a place where the command can be seen.

.. and if the keyboard is your friend, here is another possibility for command line entry and scripting:

It seems my last reply did not leave any impression upon my friends,
specially the post starter. Anyway, if we analyze more specifically, it may be
said that during three layers of processing that is user, supervisor and
hypervisor lies the answer as follows :
For example for windows,
1) User>
{any app>middleware or windows app(API)}
2) Supervisor>
{WinXP-fully virtualized subject(win-32 API-virtual
CSP-BSP-Drivers>subject}
3) Hypervisor
{kernel>Hardware}.

Similarly, for Linux,
1) User>
{any app>middleware or Linux app(GLIBC)}
2) Supervisor>
{Linux/SE Linux(Open-standards API-virtual CSP-BSP-Drivers>subject}
3) Hypervisor
{kernel>Hardware}.
