Mac OS X's Services menu (Terminal 
Services) exposes a collection of services that can work with the
currently running application. In the case of the Terminal, the
services operate on text that you have selected (the pasteboard). To
use a service, select a region of text in the Terminal, and choose an
operation from the Services menu. Mac OS X comes with several
services, but third-party applications may install services of their
own. When you use a service that requires a filename, you should
select a fully qualified pathname, not just the filename, because the
service does not know the shell's current working
directory. (As far as the service is concerned, you are invoking it
upon a string of text).
Here is a list of the services available in the Mac OS X Services menu:
Open), show its enclosing directory
(Finder Reveal), or show its information (Finder
Show Info).
Send To service allows you to compose a new
message to an email address, once you have selected that address in
the Terminal. You can also select a region of text and choose Mail
Send Selection to send a message containing the
selected text.
