How to Open a File or Folder in Terminal on Mac

For most Mac users, the preferred way of opening files or foldеrs is through the Finder app. But that’s not the only way you can navigate and access the file or folder system – you can go through a command line. Terminal is the default gateway to that command line, which doesn’t require you to point or click anything – just type a command and your Mac and it will execute the command. 

There are several situations where Terminal comes in handy when accessing a file or folder. For instance, if you’re a developer or command-line user and work with Terminal. The app also comes in handy where macOS is the server software and Terminal is the only way to navigate the operating system.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to open a file or folder in Terminal on your Mac.

Note: If you make a mistake in your command pathway, you’ll get the “No such file or directory exists” message. 

Open a File in Terminal Using a Specific Application

If you want to open your file in Terminal using an application you specify, you’ll still need the file pathway that you copied earlier and the name of the app you’re using. 

1. In the Terminal window, type Open -a “App Name” [file pathway]. For example, you can enter Open -a “Preview” /Users/beeagey/Desktop/GOOD\ OR\ BAD\ HUSTLE.jpg.

1. Press the Return button for the command to take hold. 

Open a File in Terminal Using the Text Editor

1. Open Terminal and enter this command: Open -a Text Edit [file pathway]. For example: Open -a TextEdit /Users/beeagey/Desktop/How\ to\ Open\ a\ File\ or\ Folder\ in\ Terminal\ on\ Mac.docx.

1. Presst Return run the command and open the file. 

How to Open a Folder in Terminal
