If you use the Mac’s Terminal pretty often, then you might have faced a lot of situations where you will have to move the cursor to some point in the line. But then, its pretty difficult to do it with the keyboard. Thanks to Mouse we have with the computers.
I have been using Terminal for SSH-ing into my AWS, and moving the cursor to a particular position in a lengthy command is pretty hard. But then, looks like there’s a easy way to do that.
If you need to place your terminal cursor to a particular position using your Mouse pointer, all you need to do is to just Press Option and Click on the place where you want to place the cursor. You will get a ‘+‘ symbol to help you place the cursor in the desired position.
This tip has been literally saving lot of time when I do a typo in a lengthy Terminal Command. Hope this helps you!
