Re: Terminal Commands
the Quick Look command is 'qlmanage -p filename.extension'
you have to be in the same directory as the file for it to work

Re: Terminal Commands
there are a couple of test editors in terminal that I have found.
one, a simple one, is 'pico'. (just type in 'pico')
another one, a little more complex which i am still not fully familiar with, is 'vim'. (just type in 'vim') this is used more for editing programming text, from what i learned.

Re: Terminal Commands
cool. even though you misspelled some of that (test editors, i assume you meant "text" editors).

Re: Terminal Commands
yeah, i did mean "text" editors;
in 'pico', after i tried to save the file, i'd get this bus error and it would go back to my home directory
