Thanks for the information
First, I want to make sure I made myself clear on what I wanted to do. On the particular disk, I put in the zip drive I have 41 icons showing in four columns. In OS 9.2, I could hit print and out would come a sheet of paper showing all 41 icons, although I couldn't see all of them on the screen.
In OS 10.2.8, I want to do the same thing, just print out a sheet with all 41 icons showing. If I use "Grab" I can't do it.
Then you need to make the icon size smaller and the spacing tighter in the display options for that disk so the fit in a window you can grab.
If that was understood, my question is, what is a terminal type 'cd' and how do I open it?
Ahh, the ill fruit of a lost comma. At least I didn't blow up a satellite booster on the pad.
That should read: "2) open the terminal, type 'cd '"
..as in start the Terminal application, found in Application/Utilities, and when you get the command prompt you will type the letters cd followed by a space.
This method will get you a text file name listing of what's on the disk, no icons, looking like this
[comproom-g3:~] helpdesk% ls
Desktop Movies Sites
Documents Music TheVolumeSettingsFolder
Incomplete Network Trash Folder Unix_stf
Library Pictures mindterm
LimeWire_Installer_InstallLog.log Public
MacDraw Pro 1.5 Shared
'ls -l' gives you a long listing:
