My script looks like this, really simple
tell application "Terminal"
do script "cd myapp"
do script "heroku console" in window 1
do script "User.count" in window 1
end tell
But I get an "Error in the AppleEvent Routine". What is wrong with this script? If I type the commands in the Terminal it works.

The following C file gives a bogus result when NUL is piped to it:
int main()
{
printf("_isatty = %d\n", _isatty(0));
}
the result is:
C:\Users\Edward\Dev\nulltest> test.exe < NUL
_isatty = 64
I'm pretty sure NUL (aka /dev/null) is not a terminal device! So I need to detect in another way whether or not the file descriptor corres...

This might be a noob question, but I need help. I screwed up my terminal by trying to alter my path variable using the following command:
$ sudo nano .profile
Before I did that, if I were to type:
$ echo $PATH
I would get: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
When I opened .profile in nano it told me that the fil...

Hi,
I am trying to compile a library and I get errors. I cannot see the complete output because the terminal automatically clears the output and shows only the last few lines/ pages.

Is there a way to put the terminal on the web browser instead, so I just fire up localhost:80 and then I'll have a terminal on it that I can use and whatever I execute it will execute on my local web server?
And the outputs I want to be displayed on the web browser too, just like a normal Terminal.
I'm using Ruby on Mac OS X/Ubuntu.

I could also write my application in .Net languages, so I'll accept answers for .NE...
This is the second time I've wanted to do this and again my google-fu has failed me.
When in the course of running a shell script (in my case a bash script) is there a program/script that tests whether the current shell supports color?
Alternatively is there a way to take the terminal type and easily determine if it supports color?
Ei...
I never studied OSes, so forgive me if this sounds basic or silly, but I'm curious about if one could replace the cmd prompt in Windows. I am NOT asking for programs that actually do this, as I've looked around and not really seen any.
What I'm asking is 1) if it's actually possible to write an entirely new program that would behave li...

I've got two terminal instances/processes opened with different PID.
Is it possible to from one of them, hook up into the other so when I type something and it outputs something, then the other terminal will see the output too (maybe the input too if possible?).
Just like cloning the terminals.
I want this because then I can hook up s...
