What is a Terminal |
 |
|
13672657 |
|
A terminal is a command line interface that allows a user to input commands directly to the system. A terminal is used because it is often necessary to use commands to perform functions, and to include values with these commands. In a graphical interface this is done through clicking on various objects; however, a graphical interface simply is not as versatile as a terminal, as it becomes too large and complex if it is to include all of the commands available.

Operating the Terminal |

Operating the Terminal is relatively easy as there are minimal objects to interact with. The majority of the screen is filled by the terminal. This is where all feedback from programs and other ongoing processes are displayed. If you double click on the terminal it will expand to fill nearly the entire window. At the bottom is your command prompt where you can type inputs. If the system recognizes your input as a valid command with parameters it will launch a small blue box, the syntax guide. When you are done typing you can press the enter button or hit return on your keyboard.

How to Navigate |
 |
|

The terminal has been crafted with the capacity for quick browsing. In-other-words, you can type a shortened string into the command bar; the file or sub-directory name of the folder you are in is enough to browse. For instance, if we typed c:\macross\system\, that would take us to the systems directory. The problem is, to be able to navigation like this, requires that you know the complete file path. Another way to navigate would be to start from the root, c:\, and work towards that systems folder. You would type c:\, then macross, then systems, and we would be back in the same place. This works the same with files. In addition, if we were in the systems folder and we wanted to encrypt the win.ini file, all we would have to type is encrypt:win.ini into the command bar. It is unnecessary to type encrypt:c:\macross\system\win.ini

|
There are lots of ways to execute a program. The simplest would be to click on an icon on the desktop. Granted, these are GUI applications, this process will still launch the program. Another way to launch programs would be to use the GUI file explorer and after locating the executable, double click to launch. Lastly programs can be launched through the terminal. Installers, executables, extractors, and files can all be launched by the terminal simply by finding the right file and opening it.

Using Macro Scripts |

A macro script is a listing of instructions and commands whicha program can call on to perform quick operations. For in-game use, a macro script has been simplified down to terminal commands and variable usage. Each command is stored on a different line.
Example: SCRIPT NAME= AUTO-DETAIL
//THIS MACRO WILL LOOKUP WHOIS INFORMATION FOR A SPECIFIC IP ADDRESS. //AFTER RETRIEVING WHOIS INFORMATION, A PORT SCANWILL BE RUN ON THAT //IP ADDRESS. wan_IP=Please Input Target'sWAN IP Address whois:wan_IP pscan:wan_IP
