DEar all,

When i type in the command EDITOR=emacs;export EDITOR, this is the response i get:

neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% EDITOR=emacs;export EDITOR

EDITOR=emacs: Command not found.

Dear Isobel,

.DS_Store is short for "Desktop Services Store" in Mac OS. If you want to delete them, just open "Terminal" (in the Applications/Utilities), and then type in

"sudo find / -name “.DS_Store” -depth -exec rm {} \;", next input your administrator password, finally all similar kinds of files effaced. Have fun!

Best,

Kai

Dear all,

I was going onto the basic unix tutorial and was playing around with emcas. Before doing that I created a directory named 'Belle" so that i could play around with emacs. However when I tried removing the directory this i the response I had:

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% cd Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% ls

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% emacs

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% cd ..

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% rmdir Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% mkdir Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% cd Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% emacs Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% emacs Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% rmdir Belle

rmdir: Belle: No such file or directory

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% cd ..

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% rmdir Belle

rmdir: Belle: Directory not empty

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% cd Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% ls

#Belle# #ITF#

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% rmdir ITF

rmdir: ITF: No such file or directory

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% cd ..

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% rmdir Belle

rmdir: Belle: Directory not empty

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% rmdir Belle

rmdir: Belle: Directory not empty

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% rmdir Belle

rmdir: Belle: Directory not empty

[neuros-iMac-2:~] neuro% cd Belle

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% ls

#Belle# #ITF#

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% ls -la

total 8

-rw-r--r--   1 neuro  staff     0 Jul 18 16:37 #Belle#

-rw-r--r--   1 neuro  staff    28 Jul 18 16:43 #ITF#

drwxr-xr-x   4 neuro  staff   136 Jul 18 16:52 .

drwxrw-r--+ 56 neuro  staff  1904 Jul 18 16:02 ..

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% rmdir #ITF#

rmdir: #ITF#: Not a directory

[neuros-iMac-2:~/Belle] neuro% 

There is a hidden file in it as well name '.DS_Store"

Can somebody let me know what I have done and how do I rectify it? Also, how will I be able to remove the directory 'Belle' completely? Thanks!!
