info from the command-line on macOS?

> The first thing I would check is whether any copies of `tor.real` (the
Tor daemon that is part of Tor Browser) are still running in the
background. To do that:
> * Open a command shell by starting the Terminal application (press
`Cmd+Space` and then type `Terminal` followed by `Return`, or look in
/Applications/Utilities for Terminal and open it).
> * Within the command shell, type `ps -A | grep tor.real` and see if
anything is found.
> * If one or more `tor.real` processes are found, terminate all of them
by typing `killall tor.real` and then try opening Tor Browser again.
>
> Assuming the above does not fix the problem, you can see tor messages
from the command line by opening a command shell (see above) and then
starting Tor Browser's `firefox` process from the command shell. For
example, if you have placed Tor Browser in a folder on your desktop named
TB, you would type the following command to start the browser (and then
look at what messages are output): `~/Desktop/TB/Tor\
Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox`
ty this worked.
