The Command Driven Interface, sometimes also referred to as a "CLI" or "Command Line Interface" is operated via the keyboard alone. It can display ASCII text characters and accept them as valid input, but cannot handle graphics beyond rudimentary square blocks and simple lines (known as "text-mode graphics"). Communication with the Operating System is performed by entering commands such as "copy" or "dir". The Operating System communicates back to you by displaying the results of your command, generally directly below the area of the screen in which you typed the command. What CompTIA calls the CDI is usually referred to in the real world as a CLI. For the purposes of the A+ exam however, CompTIA requires you to call the non-GUI user interface a CDI.

What do you mean GUI?

GUI stands for Graphical User Interface. It is a programming technique that allows the user to visually interpret commanding the program driving the GUI. All versions of Windows are GUIs. Computer games are GUIs. This is opposed to text based user interfaces. DOS (Disk Operating System) was the first operating system for the AT style desktop computer. It presented itself to the user with a ">" prompt on the command line. The user typed in a DOS command and told the computer to execute the command by hitting the "Enter" key. The computer responded to the command with lines of ASCII text on the display. LINUX is a text based operating system. There are several different GUI layers that run on top of a LINUX based operating system.
