Im trying to download plugins for my macVim but there is no ./Vim folder? when I download macvim all I get is the application file which works.....am I downloading it from the wrong place?
In Terminal.app, run the following commands to create the ~/.vim directory and the ~/.vimrc file.
$ cd
$ touch .vimrc
$ mkdir .vim
$ open .vim
~/.vim (case sensitive!) you mean? If it dose not exist, just create it.

I installed nix on osx using this command:
$ sh <(curl https://nixos.org/nix/install) --darwin-use-unencrypted-nix-store-volume
Following instructions here:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/119559243/download/1/manual/#sect-macos-installation
I'm trying to build a project that uses the nix shell and it's telling me to edit something in a file called nix.conf. However the project documentation was setup using a linux or nixos distribution so not sure where this file is located on osx. (The docs say to look in /etc/nix/nix.conf, but this file doesn't exist in osx)
/etc/nix/nix.conf may not exist, you need to create it.

whenever I open the terminal this line
bash: /home/user/.bash_completion/alacritty: No such file or directory
is displayed. I tried to install alacritty terminal but it failed and there after I am seeing this line in the terminal. How to solve this problem?
Looking at the install instructions here, you would have done:
echo "source ~/.bash_completion/alacritty" >> ~/.bashrc
So, just edit ~/.bashrc and delete the line source ~/.bash_completion/alacritty.

I cant go to my desktop using cd command.
There is
no such file or directory
error.
What am I doing wrong?
Try using an absolute path like cd /user/home/*YOUR_USERNAME*/Desktop please be advised that Unix bash is case sensitive.
If this don't work you can still run the ls - all command in your home directory to see all folders and files inside.
If you see the "Desktop" folder and just can't change into the directory try using sudo cd ~/Desktop
Hope that helps.

I accidentally made a mistake when I changed my ~/.bash_profile file and now I'm unable to run any command, such as ls, touch, sudo, etc.
When I write echo $PATH I have this result:
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:
$
And when I type /bin/cat ~/.bash_profile, I have this result:
export PATH=$HOME/local/node/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATHh
But I am unable to change it. Can someone help me, please?
If you can do /bin/cat, you should be able to /usr/bin/vi, too. Alternately, just fix it in your local shell:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
And then running your favourite editor should work again.

You are trying to create and open a file with TextMate. For that to work, you have to meet two conditions:
Having TextMate installed
Having TextMate's command-line tool (mate) installed (in TM 2.0, you can do that from Preferences > Terminal tab)
