Accessing Command line on German Mac OS X?

ruby-talk
1

Hi!

Another problem translating ‘Learn to Program’: I don’t know much
about Mac OS X but I assume that it has localized versions similar to
Windows. Could someone using a German version check what the German
counterpart of

Terminal application (found in Applications/Utilities)

is? What I also need to know: Is Applications/Utilities a path (i.e.
folder ‘Applications’, subfolder ‘Utilities’) or a name (i.e. folder
’Applications/Utilities’)’?

Thank you,

Josef ‘Jupp’ SCHUGT

Hallo,

ich habe seit kurzem einen Mac und wie sagen die dazu, schaumamal, es
ist das “Programm “Terminal”” und man findet es im “Finder” (Apples
Explorer) unter Programme > Dienstprogramme.

Nur am Rande:
Auf Platte selber schaut das so aus:
/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app/Contents/MacOS/Terminal
Applications taucht also als “Programme” auf, Utilities als
“Dienstprogramme” und was als “Terminal” auftaucht ist eigentlich das
Verzeichnis Terminal.app?! Schon eigenartig, so ein Mac!

Gruß, Bernhard

[German text]

It doesn’t make much sense to send a text in German to a newsgroup
that uses English. Please read my German version of the FAQ (see my
signature).

Having said that: Thanks for the information.

Oh, sorry! Merely regarded it as somewhat “pragmatic” and as making at
least a bit of sense in that very particular case that I as a German
would answer the question of another German regarding a German string in
the German version of Mac OS X in, well, German…
