iTerm

Actually, I missed it in my first look, but iTerm has an optional Cocoa text field in its toolbar that lets you enter commands for execution. ...

Perhaps, you should explain why you want to manipulate text. It sounds like you want a terminal with addressable screen coordinates which will allow you to interact with text anywhere on the screen. You can do this with MacWise, Terminal, iTerm, or GLTerm. However, your host must allow this.

You could do some trick with export / import and use textedit. It sure is not the way to go, but for some purposes i use this. If you paste the clipboard, it will be accepted as keyboard input thus being added to the file (or as i use more often as command stream). Good luck, Kees

There are two options that ship with every copy of MacOS X--the Terminal and Xterm (as part of your X11 installation). A free opensource alternative is iTerm. MacWise is not free, but there is no better terminal emulator available for MacOS 9 or MacOS X.

Have you tried iTerm as an alternative to OS X's built-in terminal?

Gimp, OpenOffice, xfractint, mrxvt, fontforge, more I like Gimp a lot and it is lot more stable on OS X now than when I initially used it. It keeps getting better. I also got a very good response when I couldn't get an update to compile - good enough that I could compile, though an update including the fix soon followed. (You don't need to compile it yourself - certainly...

Hello. I have a problem when I connect to any *nix server through terminal (or iTerm) and run mc there. Biggest problem is that I get weird "a" symbols instead of borderlines of windows. Second one is that none of Fx keys are working. Can anyone help me? It's kinda hard to work without mc ... Thanks
