Move the goalposts much?  I was responding to a comment about a
shell script and Unix, not doing technical support over a
telephone for non-technical people.

I mentioned that Plan 9 wrapped all of this up into a shell
script that they called (I think somewhat ironically, `a:`).  So
what you would say is, "type 'a:'...now type 'cd /n/a'".  Not
that much different.

I have been fortunate to not have to use Windows very much
throughout my career.  That said, some of their kernel people
are amazing engineers.

The original question had to do with `fopen`; someone brought up
Unix and shell scripts; I have no idea why you're talking about
CP/M, which copied DEC OSes.
