Guides and tutorials for Manjaro: Using the Terminal.

In simple terms, a terminal (or console) is an interface that allows for text commands to be entered and displayed. 

As it is an exceptionally powerful and versatile tool to use, Arch and other Arch-based systems are notable for relying far more heavily on its use than other (user-friendly) distributions such as Ubuntu or Mint, which have placed a greater focus on the use of Graphical User Interfaces (GUI).

Guides and tutorials for Manjaro: Using the Terminal.

Although GUIs do undertake many common tasks that have been provided with Manjaro, particularly to assist new users j-- ust as with other user-friendly distributions -- it may on occasionally be necessary to use the terminal to get something done. 

Most of the guides contained in the wiki rely on using the terminal, particularly where solving problems and tweaking the system is concerned. 

For those users who wish to learn more about how Manjaro works, and for those who wish to take full advantage of its versatility, it is highly recommended to learn how to use the terminal. 

Don't worry: it's not that hard or scary, and this wiki can be used to guide you every step of the way.

How do I use the manjaro terminal?

Step 1) Click the Manjaro icon on the taskbar and search for “Terminal”. Step 2) Start “Terminal Emulator”. Step 3) Use the pacman system update command to update the system. Pacman is Manjaro's default package manager used to install, update, configure, and remove software.

  1. Hello, I come to you today with a question about default applications, since I was recommended to try “kitty” as a terminal, I select it as “default” (as I leave in the image) but when using “control, alt, t” to quickly open the terminal, the default manjaro terminal keeps popping up, can that be changed? Or am I forced to open that terminal as if it were a normal application?

    1. You must also assign kitty the Ctrl+Alt+t combination in the keyboard settings, in the shortcuts tab of the applications. Otherwise your option will not take effect. MenuConfiguration ManagerKeyboard. I hope you find it useful. Greetings.
