[QUESTION]Running a Mac Server

Well running the actual server is easy for me, but I have a few questions. [Macintosh]
Okay so first of all, I'd like to know how to have a list of commands through the console IN-game.
Second, whenever the map is finished, it says ''Continue = Enter''. When I hit Return [enter] nothing happens. I have no idea what the hell to do.
[Thank you for your help]
EDIT:This is Halo ONE. Combat Evolved.

not sure about the continue/enter problem, but for the in-game console, try... well wait, i'm thinking windows, but if you launch halo from a shortcut, which points to the actual game executable, try seeing if you can alter the target to something like "/blah/blah/blah/halo -console"
bottom line is you need to add the -console after the game (with a space in-between) to get in-game console. not sure how to do that with mac, but you might need to try launching it from terminal:
1: open a terminal window
2: navigate to the directory the halo executable is in using the ls and cd commands
3: once you're in the directory halo is in, simply type "halo -console" (without quotes) and i think it should launch the game with console enabled.

Console is something that it prompts you to do when you first installed halo. There is a way when you open it to have that settings window open. I think it's holding down the apple key or something. Edit: yeah hold down the apple key and in the window check the box run console.
As for running a server: enter != return. There is an enter button on your keyboard next to the right apple button on laptops and on the bottom right of the number pad on normal keyboards. Shift return might register as an enter but just return will not.
