The command you should type at the shell prompt or command prompt depends on what you want to accomplish. For example, to display the current directory, you can use pwd in Unix/Linux or cd without arguments in Windows. To list files, type ls in Unix/Linux or dir in Windows. Always ensure you have the appropriate permissions for the commands you intend to execute.

In the unix system what does set the prompt text mean?

It generally refers to setting the text that will appear when the shell prompt is asking the user to type in a command, meaning, the shell needs work to do. The standard prompt in most shell environments is a single character, such as '#', '$', or '%'. By setting the prompt you can customize what appears when the system is idle and wants you to type in a command to do something.

What is a secondary prompt in UNIX?

The secondary prompt (PS2) is used to prompt the user with whatever string they want to indicate a command continuation line. For example, if I use the standard PS2 prompt and type in the command: cat abc def \ The shell will prompt me for the rest of the line with a ? mark or some other character. I usually set my secondary prompt for something more interesting, such as: PS2='more ? ' So that I know that the shell wants more information before executing the command line.

What is the difference between Kernel and Shell?

Your interface to the operating system is called a shell.The shell is the outermost layer of the operating system. Shells incorporate a programming language to control processes and files, as well as to start and control other programs. The shell manages the interaction between you and the operating system by prompting you for input, interpreting that input for the operating system, and then handling any resulting output from the operating system.Shells provide a way for you to communicate with the operating system. This communication is carried out either interactively (input from the keyboard is acted upon immediately) or as a shell script. A shell script is a sequence of shell and operating system commands that is stored in a file.When you log in to the system, the system locates the name of a shell program to execute. After it is executed, the shell displays a command prompt. This prompt is usually a $ (dollar sign). When you type a command at the prompt and press the Enter key, the shell evaluates the command and attempts to carry it out. Depending on your command instructions, the shell writes the command output to the screen or redirects the output. It then returns the command prompt and waits for you to type another command.
