I'm not familiar with the particular instructions you're referring to, 
but the "bash$" is probably referring to the bash shell. In *nix, you 
can have all sorts of shells; bash is one of the more popular. So just 
ignore the "bash$" part, and type whatever comes after the "$".

If you want to see what shell you're using, type "echo $SHELL". I think 
it'll probably be tcsh, but I'm not on an OS/X box at the moment to check.
