Thanks...
I'm terrible at this.
Must I type "vi remove.sh" into the Terminal window first?
And then do I hit Enter/Return when I have pasted that info into the Terminal
window?

yes, you are in effect creating a shell file that can be excuted later.
before you paste the commands you will probably need to change vi into
insert mode
:i
should do it.

Okay, so I did the following:
1) Opened a Terminal window
2) Typed 'vi remove.sh' [Enter]
3) Typed ':i' [Enter]
3) Pasted the text as above
4) Typed ':wq' [Enter]
5) Closed the Terminal window. When I closed the window, a dialog box popped
up saying 'Do you want to close this Terminal win
Thanks Mark,
You're being very helpful...

Helen,
That's really not very helpful.
I joined this group because I needed help uninstalling Firebird - after
accidentally installing it - all the steps for uninstall - not just some of the
steps.
I don't know about you, but I got a ton of other things that I'm involved in,
and while

I obviously am still doing something wrong as the 'Firebird' User is still on
my startup screen.
Here are the exact steps I took and there results:
1) Opened Terminal.
2) Typed 'vi remove.sh'. [Enter]
3) Terminal changes it's 'view' from 'bash' at the top to 'vim' and the
following text
Type 'sudo ./remove.sh' [Enter]
If you are in the same directory as the shell file.

How do I know which directory the remove.sh file is in? Can I find it from
within the Finder?
How do I find it using Terminal?
How do I change directories to get into the directory that the file is in?
I tried it out and it said the following:
Ryans-MacBook-Pro:~ ryanashton1$ ./remove.sh
Launchctl
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.firebird.gds.plist: Could not find specified service
Remove Framework
Remove Receipt
Remove /tmp/firebird

Before step you need to press [Esc] to return to command mode.
