The OS X Terminal

Geek time again.

Being an old unix geek, one of the things I was psyched about with OS X was being able to use the terminal. Sometimes I live almost completely in the command line (except for web browsing). While browsing around the other day I ran across a page with a bunch of articles on the OS X terminal. The one I found most interesting was one on making .term files for Terminal. These are files that when you doubleclick on them open up a new terminal window and run the command you have specified. You can also specify window size and where to display it when it opens.

So what I've done is created a bunch of these for standard things I run in a terminal window, like listing log files and sshing to other machines. Pretty nifty.
