Bunker Newcomers to Apple's new technologies sometimes wonder at the productivity of the ex-NeXT users -- and in particular developers -- and ask themselves how is it possible that these people are able to achieve so much with so little documentation. Finally we uncover the secrets. Class libraries, API and Preferences settings heretofore shared only be an elite few, exposed today for all. User Defaults A number of hidden preferences significantly enhance the Mac OS X user-experience for the cognoscenti. defaults write com.apple.Preferences ExposeHiddenPreferences Yes defaults write com.apple.installer TrashSymbolicLinks No defaults write com.apple.finder UseCocoaFinder Yes defaults write com.apple.finder RunSlowly No defaults write com.apple.finder LoadedFolders Springy defaults write com.apple.EOModeler CrashRandomly No /* and I emphasis the next line of code ... */ defaults write com.microsoft.Office SendPersonalInformationToMotherShip No These overrides though, the authors go on to say, are just the tip of the iceberg ... </quote> spooky isn't ... what else personal goes where? this is one for the MacMulders and MacScullys, and I don�t mean John, John. is Apple fronting up for Microsoft who are fronting up for the CIA who are fronting up for the Illuminati feeding all your personal details in that " most secure of the secure " Oses to a Pepsi drinking Lizard-like Anti-Christ? I wish I knew more. does anybody care? and has anyone else notice a reluctance for OS 9.2 General Controls to stick with the Documents folder preference rather than go with Last Used or Set by Application? mine keeps changing back and I hate being told where to stick my files by anyone, least of all some hiked up and hyped geriatric OS. complain?!?! ... I think that I will just go back and play Nanosaur Extreme for another half an hour to remind me of life with william ahearn and the macheretic.com list. jerk offs. john on the otherhand, the poor wee kernal actually gets nervous before it panics ... <quote> NSNervousKernelNotification This notification is sent by NSProcessInfo whenever the kernel is nervous, but before it actually panics. This allows the receiver of the notification to do things to minimize the likelihood of a kernel panic affecting its process. <unquote> perhaps someone ought to dream up an extension that is a successor to Nada called Librium or Assertiveness Training Course to cure it. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
