I just found this out and wanted to share it with all of you.

Suppose you’re in the Terminal (Command Line) and need to quickly go to a web site.  Yes, you can:

1. Make the Terminal in to a window.
2. Open the web browser.
3. Type in the URL.

But what if there was a way to do it from the Terminal?

There is:

open https://www.compuscoop.com/

That’s it!  It’ll work with any website.
