Do not want ;_;
I love character-based UIs. They are pretty darn fast, efficient, and nice to get stuff done. I'm from the Norton Commander (now FAR Manager and its toy Linux counterpart Midnight Commander) school. While I use and love GNU/Linux except when playing games, one of the things I think GNU/Linux (and any UNIX system for that matter) have to improve is character-based application support: UNIX terminals blow, the way the keyboard is mapped with escape sequences is pig disgusting, let alone the special voodoo for cursor positioning, colours, etc. I'd like GNU/Linux to feature a console like that of Windows (which is about the only thing I like from Windows, though few people use it properly with the *W Unicode functions): one that handles colour attributes properly, has appropriate functions for cursor positioning (and some functions for console properties that should be best left to the console interface), and you get a regular Windows event queue, which means you receive scancodes (no more terminfo and ^]]~334m;56d;haxanus]; insanity). This is great for character-based applications, though Windows lacks better fixed-spacing Unicode fonts and console programs.
