Solution

I tried to maximize the nano text editor and my screen went blank!

Use CTRL+L to restore the text.

Exit and save your work using CTRL+X>Y>ENTER.

Resize the console to your desired size and then reopen the nano text editor and continue your work.

I want to redo one of the ICAs or assignments for practice but don’t want to overwrite my work.

Create a practice folder in your wwwroot folder and save a copy of the original file to practice there:

Once you are in the terminal, type: cd wwwroot
Unzip the desired file (replace htmlintro.zip with desired file) into a new practice folder using this command: unzip htmlintro.zip -d practicefolder
Navigate into the new folder to work in the new file: cd practicefolder
Type ls to see what is in the folder
Type nano intro.html (replace intro.html with your desired file name)
When you put the url in the browser you need to add in the new practice folder. For example: https://misdemo.temple.edu/tuz54321x/practicefolder/intro.html
- Replace tuz54321x with your own account.
