Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Lets put AI to use with an intelligent command line interface. (A.L.I.C.E. are you listening?)
Most program's help systems are an exercise in frustration. And tunneling through a maze of menus to find a seldom used feature is also.
On a program level, it would be nice to go to a text entry box and enter the command you want executed. If it was considered unambiguous it could be executed immediately, otherwise the Intelligent Command Line could enter into a dialog with you until you both agreed on the task to be performed.
Just so it isn't like having a dialog with Bomb#20 in "Darkstar".
