Terminal help...
Is there ANY site out there that focuses on how to actually USE the Terminal? I like it but I can never find ANY site that describes how to use it without talking in MONDO UNIX nerd language.... All I want is a Mac Poweruser/OS X newbie manual for the Terminal...
Is there such a thing?

<strong>I'm perfectly willing to learn UNIX... it's LEARNING it that I'm asking help for... Every tutorial I run accross helps a little but they all expect a working knowledge of UNIX... which I don't really have... I'm asking if anyone knows of a BEGINNERS manual of sorts for the Terminal and/or UNIX.

Have you tried this: <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/rgriff/files/TerminalBasics.pdf?" target="_blank">http://homepage.mac.com/rgriff/files/TerminalBasics.pdf</a>? I haven't looked at it, but macosxhints.com is always a good place to start.

After reading that you could then probably move up to this...

Looks like a good book

A topic that I started sometime ago about your same question that says [sarcasm] if your lazy you cant learn unix [/sarcasm] and if you want to have the full power of unix and be able to learn it right you should invest in another computer. The best thing I can tell you is just to dive right in and learn as you go along, seems to work for me
