Get to know the Terminal…intro for newbies
If you’re interested in learning about the Terminal, but don’t know where to start, this article from MacApper is a great place to get your feet wet.
If you’re anything like me you switched to the Mac so you’d never have to jack with a terminal or prompt ever again – but you should check this out anyway. There is lots of useful stuff in this article.

Hi, can someone tell me the origin of the “>” symbol in the Terminal icon? It is not appearing in the Terminal window and, I believe, neither in other command line scripting applications I saw before.
Maybe it’s obvious but I’m just curious…
Thanks

You can have a look to Screecastonline.com, particularly the SCO0099 – OS X Terminal Basics podcast.
(And a lot more interesting stuff !)
Enjoy !
