The Terminal App

The Terminal App can be accessed by clicking on the Tools menu and View Apps.

This application provides a fully integrated Linux terminal with direct access to your Workspace Files and Blob Storage.  It enables file management using standard Linux commands and allows you to execute local scripts for powerful, browser-based automation.

Selecting text with the mouse will copy content to the clipboard which can be pasted into the Terminal with ctrl+shift+v or middle-mouse-click.  

For pasting from external sources please follow the instructions here:  Copy and paste into an app

Help with terminal tools can be displayed by supplying the tool with --help (or for unrar /?).
