Great!  It really will become much easier as you learn more.  Creating objects using the command line gives an extremely accurate drawing.  But, don't give up on using snaps either.  In my earlier post I gave you a screen shot of the snap icons located at the bottom of the screen.  (I'm assuming you are using the latest release of LibreCAD.  I am using 2,2,0-rc1 on Linux Mint.)  The snaps will "lock on" to a particular point on the drawing.  This point can vary depending on the type of snap you have turned on.  You can turn on more than one at a time.  Using snaps can save a bunch of time in calculating the absolute points.  Total control is obtained by using a combination of absolute, relative, polar and snaps.

"Alas, it would seem that screen capture isn't working on this computer,..."
If you are using Windows the screen capture saves the screen capture to memory.  Open Paint and hit CTRL-V to paste the image to the screen.  Then save the image.  If on Windows 10, use the snipping tool.
