You should get GNO/ME.  It is a free UNIX type command line
environment for the IIGS.  You can even run several programs
at once since it supports pre-emptive multitasking.  It is a
CLI replacement for the GUI that runs on top of GS/OS.  It
is mostly useful for programmer types since GNO/ME lets
a compiler work in the background.
