Can't type anything into Terminal

I was in the process of installing Zend Server on my iMac OSX 10.8.2. I was near the end when it wasnt working properly, so I started over by typing in the first command:

sudo nano /usr/local/zend/bin/zendctl.sh

Then this was returned and I can't type anything into Terminal. I've closed the window and reopened, still the same. The folks on the Apple Discussion forums suggested I delete the /usr/local/zend folder and restart Terminal, which I did, but still have the same issue. Nobody there seems to have experienced this so they directed me here.

Here's what is now in my Terminal window:

This is what it looks like when I open a new window.

I logged in with another account on my machine and the same thing happens. I'm stumped. The Apple helpers are stumped. I'm hoping someone here can unstump this whole mess.

This error is apparently the non-obvious result of incorrect permissions. Use the Repair Disk Permissions feature of Disk Utility to fix it.
