ConsoleMessage(8) BSD System Manager's Manual ConsoleMessage(8)NAME
ConsoleMessage -- Send a message to SystemStarter
SYNOPSIS
ConsoleMessage [-v] message
ConsoleMessage [-v] -S
ConsoleMessage [-v] -F
ConsoleMessage [-v] -s service
ConsoleMessage [-v] -f service
ConsoleMessage [-v] -q setting
ConsoleMessage [-v] -b path
ConsoleMessage [-v] -u
DESCRIPTION
The ConsoleMessage utility may be used by startup item scripts to send messages to SystemStarter (see SystemStarter(8)).
The default behavior is to send the specified message to SystemStarter to be displayed on the console. SystemStarter will attempt to local-
ize the string using the current startup item's localization dictionaries.
ConsoleMessage may also be used to give feedback to SystemStarter indicating which services provided by the startup item have succeeded or
failed.
OPTIONS -v verbose mode (prints errors to stdout)
-S mark all services provided by this item as successful
-F mark all services provided by this item as failed
-s mark the service as successful
-f mark the service as failed
-q query SystemStarter for the value of the configuration variable setting (result will be printed to stdout).
-b Tell SystemStarter to load the display bundle at the specified path
-u Tell SystemStarter to unload the current display bundle
NOTES
When a service name is not specified, ConsoleMessage assumes its parent process identification (see getppid(2)) is that of a startup item
script, and uses that token to find the correct list of services provided by the current item. If the process calling ConsoleMessage is not a
startup item script, it is necessary to explicitly provide service names.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
