How long were you using DM (or is it PM?) in Aegis from Apollo  
Domain? Probably this one built up your bad habit (decades ago?).

I'd like to suggest to use eshell in perhaps an extra frame, which  
then can be as small as one line, I think, without tool-bar, without  
scroll-bar, possibly some hook or eshell init file can switch off all  
this decoration. It will give you access to a lot of Emacs Lisp  
functions (or even all?) – and a UNIX shell with all the typical UNIX  
tools!


The mini-buffer is kind of a process that needs to get launched every  
time in order to accept some input. The launcher is M-x. IMO eshell  
can be such an always-on mini-buffer (substitute) ...
