I've downloaded and installed XAMPP successfully, but I'm a bit confused by the following instructions:
"...Step 3: Start
Go to a Terminal shell and login as the system administrator root:
sudo su..."
Can anyone tell me what a 'Terminal Shell' is? as I have no clue what this means and I am totally lost?!
I am also thrown by the next instruction:
"... To start XAMPP simply call this command:
/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp start ..."
How do I call this command? Do I simply navigate to the file in my hard drive? as I've tried this but my mac doesn't know what application to open the file as.
Sorry if these are really basic questions, but I'm new to this so any help would be most appreciated.
Many thanks
Elwood
