Terminal offers a lot of power, and it can be faster at many things.
However, I did choke the Script Editor yesterday with an AppleScript
issued "do shell script". It executed, performed as expected, but put
the Script Editor into spinning beach ball land requiring a force
quit.
To see a selection of the shell commands available, press Opt-Tab in
a Terminal window, then answer y to the prompt. You'll get a list of
the commands available. If you have installed developer tools, and
your environment path was altered appropriately, you'll have
something on the order of 1031 items appear in the list. Lots of
utilities of interest in there. There are man pages for most of them.
