But John, all of that mouse button clicking. Wouldn't you rather type
everything in on a command line, and possibly hit wrong keys and have
to go back over it several times to locate your errors?

No typing everything. This ain't Windows ;-)

Swipe - hit copy - slide over to next desktop where the terminal is - type
"wget " - hit paste - hit enter.

And now the file is on a hard drive somewhere. Next step is to find an
app to open it.

In Linux? Usually, the user's home directory.
