1- Use Xterm to get to command prompt.

3- Save the changes.
4- Done.

"mc" is Midnight Commander, a Norton Commander lookalike for UN*X and Linux. Both it and Xterm can be found at the maemo repositories.

Teaching you how to use both is beyond the scope of this forum. May I suggest either a good beginners' book on Linux -- or just use the zoom keys.
