Command Prompt is the command-line interpreter used within the Windows operating system. As Mac OS X is based on the Unix operating system it uses the a Unix Shell command-line interpreter. You can access the Shell by running the Terminal application which can be found in the Utilities folder which is within the Applications folder.
