+are computer programs designed to be used from a text interface, such as a
+`shell <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_(computing)>`_. Command-line
+applications usually accept various inputs as arguments, often referred to as
+parameters or sub-commands, as well as options, often referred to as flags or
+switches.
