I am found so shell scripts that may work within our enviroment but, I don’t know how to create shell scripts!!! 😯 😯 😯 😯

I don’t know if it’s what’s you’re looking for. Recently I wanted to save two commands in a double-clickable file on my desktop.

I found a little hint on a site and in the terminal, you can save as a command,

Everytime I change a virtual mail alias, I have to type two actions :

Terminal > sudo postmap /etc/postfix/virtual and Terminal > sudo postfix reload

Now, they are dbl-clickable on my desktop.

But what I’m really looking for, it’s a terminal plug in or something (very very stable) that can save my commands I’m using often. I tried Clix, but it’s not really the thing I’m looking for. Terminalicious was promessing but we can’t save commands, just recall recent command 🙁

Hope I could help, keep us posted on your discoveries!

If it is a guide to get started with shell scripting that you are looking for, there’s one at the apple developer site which might get you started:
