<h2> Description of the Termianl's toolbar </h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="" alt="Toolbar" height="">
|
||||
|
||||
<p> Once the Terminal has been opened, a menu bar will appear exactly in the upper left corner of the screen.
|
||||
This menu contains some preferences that could improve the user experience and use of the Terminal.
|
||||
The menu is divided into 6 sections that I will describe briefly to give you a basic knowledge
|
||||
that could be very useful once you have become familiar with the program.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><h3> Terminal </h3></li>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<img src="" alt="Terminal section" height="">
|
||||
|
||||
<li> <h4> Secure Keyboard Entry </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> Inside the Terminal section you will find the item “secure Keyboard Entry”, this tool allows the user to enable an additional system security.
|
||||
Essentially, this option prevents other Application from seeing what you are typing on the shell.
|
||||
It also prevents processes that are working in background from monitoring your keystrokes.
|
||||
In a first moment it seems that it doesn’t do anything, that’s because for people who works on their own personal computer, this additional secure becomes an unnecessary precaution.
|
||||
However, this option could be very useful if you using an unknown computer or a public computer.
|
||||
<li> <h4> Hide Terminal </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> Although Shell’s window does not occupy a lot of space, it is possible to hide the window by pressing ⌘ + H . </p>
|
||||
<li> <h4> Hide Others </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> In the other hand, it’s possible to hide all the others windows (except the Terminal) by pressing ⌥ + ⌘ + H . </p>
|
||||
<li> <h4> Quit Terminal </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> Once you have finished working with the Terminal, you can definitely close it by pressing ⌘ + Q . </p>
|
||||

|
||||
<li> <h4> Show Inspector </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> This option allows the user to customise the layout of the shell. This option contains some profiles that you can use instead of spending time to create your own one.
|
||||
This option is not permanent, once the terminal has been quitted, the shell is set with the default settings. </p>
|
||||
<li> <h4> Edit Title </h4>

||||

<p> ... </p>
|
||||
<li> <h4> Cut </h4>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<p> Traditionally, the cut command was designed to move texts within applications, but, according to the Mac user community, it’s not very intuitive.
|
||||
There is a much easier alternative way, the copy and paste, known as ⌘ + C (copy) and ⌘ + V (paste). </p>
|
||||
<li> <h4> Copy </h4>

<p> If you want to copy a text with special symbols, precisely code text, you have to use paste escaped text to maintain the text intact and not have characters interpreted as code. </p>
