Cant open and edit .bash_profile on my Mac
android, cordova, macos, terminal
Solution
You are not doing anything wrong, files starting with a dot (.) are hidden, simply edit the file, and everything is okay.
So you can for example do nano ~/.bash_profile or vim ~/.bash_profile or whichever favorite editor you are using.
Problem
I want to build an app with Eclipse and PhoneGap, and it is required to edit the .bash_profile file which is located under the `Users` folder. But I can't edit it (I can't open the file). Here are the instructions. I can't open it when I navigate with the `Finder` to that file, and I can't open it when I use the command line ``` open ~/.bash_profile ``` I created the file with my mouse (right click, new file, and changed the name to `.bash_profile` ... it is now a shell script). What am I doing wrong?
