Ed support group.

come on! I know you're out there! you, like me, have been discriminated against for years for not being like everyone else. All these other guys working with their big fancy behemoths while we're stuck with a less than satisfactory experience that barely gets the work done (if ever!).

Let's join forces and support each other! come on, guys! let's do it. This is THE ED SUPPORT GROUP FOR UNIX PROGRAMMERS. We don't want Notepad or any fancy graphics editors! Not even Vi or Emacs will do! WE'RE OK WITH ED!

Depending on which server I'm on, I'll use either Xcoral, Xemacs, or a freeware editor called "ne".

hey, noob question:

Is there any online verbage about practical applications/tutorials/guides on how to use terminal in mac? I know that is very powerful if used correctly, but I just don't even know where to start. My experience with it is basically jumping onto emacs from bash, and then playing a couple little games from there. (and watching the ascii star wars) Thanks!

I've got an even n00ber question.

What the hell are we talking about?! Emac sounds like an online McDonalds burger.

hahaha, that's made me laugh out loud, which made me feel weird, as I'm all by myself right now.

Hey K,
The mac terminal is nothing more than a unix bash shell. There are many tutorials on bash, sh and ksh all of which apply here. If you're not unix inclined it may be too much for you since it is a unix console (OSX has a unix kernel running behind all this nice graphics).

I wouldn't know anything about that either ...I don't even know what the term means

Poor thing is in denial.
