                  @史新瑞 yes… you can redirect that to a file

                  npm start >somefile.txt 2>&1

                  wait…

                  then ctrl-c

                  then examine and post

                  make sure to pm2 stop all before npm start

                        @史新瑞 you must create it with the redirection operator >

                        same as windows. you can capture the output of a command to a file

                                    @史新瑞 MagicMirror is installed in a subfolder named MagicMirror

                                    the npm command reads the package.json file in the CURRENT folder to determine what to do

                                    npm means node package manager (n.p.m.)

                                    you are in the users home folder

                                    /home/pi

                                    no package.json here…

                                    you must change the current directory (cd command)

                                      @史新瑞 said in I want to display txt files from outside at the bottom:

                                      start > somefile Txt

                                      you are missing the . somefile.txt

                                      also Linux is case sensitive
                                      so somefile.Txt is not the same as somefile.txt
