&dactyl.appName;'s command-line mode is perhaps its most powerful interface. In this mode, the command input bar at the bottom of the window is given the keyboard focus for any of a variety of required inputs. In addition to access to almost every aspect of &dactyl.appName; and &dactyl.host;, the command line provides power and comprehensive completion for all of its commands, along with concise descriptions for each command and all of its arguments. Couple this with persistent, searchable command history, and you have a very efficient interface for easily performing simple and complex tasks.
Included among the several command-line modes are Ex command mode (the standard mode for entering commands), find mode (for searching the current page), prompt mode (for selecting files, confirming actions), and hint mode (for selecting links and other items on a page).
