Hi Gordon,
When you enter terminal, you are probably already logged in. Use VO
navigation to take a look at the screen and you should find something
like the following:

Of course, your log in name will be there instead of mine. When I
have stuff to copy into terminal, I copy it to the clip board and
paste it in to the terminal window. Take a look at the result with
VO navvigation and if you don't see your name at the bottom, just
press enter and then read the output again.
I hope this makes sense, but if you need further help, feel free to
drop me a note.

Hi. I need to use Terminal in order to resolve an issue which has
arisen locally. This is going to sound more than just a little dumb,
but I've never used the Terminal app before. So I assume that the
first thing I need to do is log in. I'm getting the -Bash prompt. I
have two lines of text to enter as per instructions from a software
vendor. I wonder if somebody would be willing to give me a hand,
maybe off list would be better. Thanks, and I'm sorry this is so
basic. I'm more than a little embarrassed to admit my ignorance on
this one, <smile>.
