option so that you can make
use of the graphical interface that is included in Raspbian. You can use Command
Prompt and the Scratch language from the graphical interface. The default option
is to use Command Prompt when your Raspberry Pi boots up.
Internationalisation Options
By default, Raspbian is configured for use in the United Kingdom. For those who
aren't in the United Kingdom, you need to configure Raspbian to use the correct
time zone, keyboard layout, and regional settings.
