终端-如何在特定目录下打开窗口

Question

When I open Terminal on Mac, it starts in the root directory. I don't want to have to type cd to change my directory every time I open terminal, I want to be in that directory to begin with.

How do I make terminal start in a specific directory? Also, how do I make terminal always start full screen and in a particular color?

Also, what is the command to open text mate in terminal?

This perhaps better belongs on Ask Different , but here are two options to start a Terminal session at a particular location:

1. Open Terminal Preferences to the Settings section, and in the Window tab check the "Run command", and enter cd yourdirectorypath in the command field. It will automatically run for any new Terminal window.

2. Edit the ~/.bash_profile and add the cd yourdirectorypath line at the end.

As for starting fullscreen, if you quit Terminal with a fullscreen window open, it will launch that way.

You can set colour schemes in the preferences, there are many built-in "profiles".
