Help?

Argh. I renewed my paid LJ time just last month and am greedy and don't want to let go of my icons or Scrapbook. On the other hand, am irritated by flagging and tag limits.

Anyway, those of you on Mac, how do you back up your LJs? I used to use LJ Archive, but it seems to be Windows only.

Thank you! I hate being such a computer newbie... Speaking of which, what is the ~ in Terminal? Is that just referring to an upper directory? Also, does Terminal actually tell you when something has executed correctly? And for ./ljmigrate.py, could I do ./whateverdirectory/ljmigrate.py, or do I have to navigate to the actual folder?

I think ~ refers to the root directory, which in this case is your user account.

Once you enter the code to be executed, you'll get feedback and updates; the program is very chatty. It will sort of explode on you with feedback if you cause an error.

And for ./ljmigrate.py, could I do ./whateverdirectory/ljmigrate.py
I have no idea on this one.

Yay it worked!
