....And risk misspelling what you type?

Out of interest, how do you access "the terminal", please?

Press the Apple Key (some call it CMD) and Space Bar. That launches Spot Light (the best search system ever ). And just start typing terminal. You should see it appear, just press enter when it's there and you'll launch it.

Well, there you go, learnt something else new today

Only easy when you know it

Spotlight has been there now for a long time and got better and better. I rarely use the dock to launch anything.

2 clicks vs launching terminal?
