All is in the title:
I want to use

term.setTextScale(2)

I enter this line in an empty program and it returns me:

test:1: attempt to call nil

if you know how to fix it or use it, please leave a reply

The function setTextScale can only be used on monitors, not on the built in terminal. Sorry..
If you'd like an example for monitors, ask away.

[Desslink]

Yes it's for change the text scale on my monitor

[Orwell]

Then you'd do it like this:

local monitor = peripheral.wrap('left') -- change left to the side your monitor is on
monitor.setTextScale(2)
monitor.clear()
monitor.write('Test!')

Not really, (you can paste exactly one line AFAIK). Check out the pastebin program to download programs from the internet.

Yeah, you can only copy paste one line at a time which is a pain.

Use pastebin if you can

[Desslink]

ok and how the copy/paste work (it isn't with Ctrl+C or V)
Pastebin is an another mod ?

[theoriginalbit]

pastebin is a website http://pastebin.com
to download a script from pastebin the http api needs to be enabled, then you type this into the terminal (replacing values where appropriate)

pastebin get <pastebin url extension> <file path to save to>

for example:

pastebin get 9Fg3uYAd startup

would dowload the script at pastebin.com/9Fg3uYAd into the startup file
to put a script onto pastebin use

pastebin put <file path to dump to pastebin>
