hope im not wasting any ones time here but i know nothing of x terminal
never used a linux os ..
i see a lot of the applications and true potentials of the N900 can only be reached using xterm so does any one know of a place where i can learn the basic codes/working so i can try and understand what most of the posts are talking about

really appreatiate it

thanks

Just lookup "bash tutorials" which is very similar to ash (The language used in xterm on N900). I doubt it'll be useful though because most scripts on the forum usually just tweak some configuration files.

You might find what you want in the wiki to use xterminal: http://wiki.maemo.org/Terminal

It would also be a good idea to learn a bit about how Linux works if you want. There is a great tutorial there at IBM: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/li...pic1-v3-103-1/

Hope that helps!
