There are couple of questions that without the shell tag are incorrectly tagged and power users might get frustrated because of this: - http://askubuntu.com/q/14866/1059 - http://askubuntu.com/questions/399818/command-history-previous-and-next-command-in-ngspice (migrated today, ngspice has an interactive shell mode) - http://askubuntu.com/q/319550/169736 (this asks how to change the terminal colors in the shell (most likely bash)) I'm sure there are more out there. I haven't found the exact reasons why [tag:shell] and [tag:terminal] where merged (the later happened even though the consensus [was not to][1] merge terminal).
