... and a small typographical, remove / before - . then the first one is
correct. Notice $home is a representation to "/home/richard" not literally
"/home". So if i used $home in my terminal it would represent "/home/anthony".
i am stuggling with trying to use this terminal i have d/loaded a theme from
gnome-look.org called slicknesS-black
extracted it to the desktop and then proceed to the teminal
