Which Terminal App am I Using?
Snippet

macosx has full disk permissions limiting access to certain directories and files. If one app, say iTerm has access but another program does not, say xterm, a bash script might need to check which application can be run with the appropriate permissions.
Look for TERM_PROGRAM
$ echo $TERM_PROGRAM iTerm.app $ env | grep TERM_ TERM_PROGRAM=iTerm.app TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION=3.3.12 # or in a script if [[ $TERM_PROGRAM != 'iTerm.app' ]]; then echo "You need to run this with iTerm for full disk permissions" exit fi
