Explanation & Hint:
In graphical mode on various operating systems, especially those based on UNIX and Linux, there are specific applications designed to provide access to a shell environment. From the options provided, the following two are correct:
- Terminal: This is a generic term often used to refer to graphical applications that emulate a console within a graphical environment. It provides a window where you can interact with the shell. “Terminal” might be found as “GNOME Terminal” on GNOME desktops, “Konsole” on KDE, or simply “Terminal” on macOS and other desktop environments.
- Xterm: This is one of the oldest terminal emulators in the UNIX world, provided by the X Window System. Xterm allows you to use a shell within a graphical user interface, making it possible to execute command-line programs.
The other options either do not exist or are less commonly known in standard environments:
- console: While “console” often refers to a text-only display or terminal, it isn’t typically the name of a specific application in graphical environments. It more generally describes the concept or physical hardware for input and output.
- Gbash: There is no standard application known as “Gbash”. It appears to be a combination of “GNOME” and “Bash”, but no such standard application exists with this name.
- Guiterm: Like “Gbash”, “Guiterm” is not a recognized standard application for accessing the shell in graphical environments. It seems to be a fictional or incorrect term.
Therefore, Terminal and Xterm are the appropriate choices for applications through which you can access a shell in graphical mode. |
