In the days before the WYSIWYG operating systems most hacking was done at the command prompt. Executable files could be run directly and a program or script could be easily written and tested.
All that was needed was a simple text editor and a compiler. That was all you needed to hack. Hacking involved looking at ways in which to optimise the code you had written to perform a particular task.
Early versions of Borland tools could be used to compile your source code from the command line and was easy to use.
