Command Line on Mac


In OS X, when we use X11 terminal we may think it`s too small and not customized.

On command line of X11, we could activate one more terminal windows using this command < xterm -fa Monaco -fs 14 -fg white -bg black & >.

Although this command provides us as many self-defined terminals as we need, it still has some limitations, such as it does not support text copy on the window, we can not know current path name unless typing pwd and etc.

Anyway, here we just talk about the usage of this xterm command.
