Imagewell is a small and nifty image editor. It can upload the images via ftp, webdav, to a folder or directly to .mac. I like it Imagewell

Right! This one does what the name says. It looks at the .bom files in the receipts and deletes all files belonging to the package. It has a small and simple gui. Right now I am using the beta version. But it didn’t wreck my system - so it’s stable Desinstaller link

Well… this one tweaks keys. It is very easy to use and changes the windows scancodes. It writes the new scancodes to the registry so there is no need for a background daemon. I used it to remap the apple keys (from the Apple bluetooth keyboard) to ALT.

When you select some text in the terminal you have to cmd+c to copy it and cmd+v to paste it. Terminal.app allows you to paste the actual selection - there is no need to copy it first. Its shift+command+v.
I mapped this keystroke with Usboverdrive to the middle mouse button for the good ol’ xterm feeling…
By the way - you can also drag the selected copyed text to the actual prompt and it will be pasted too… This fits well with Apples drag anywhere mantra.

I was looking for a really small and fast image viewer without bells and wihstels and I found it:
Phoenix Slides
In conjunction with USB Overdrive I mapped wheel down and up to right and left arrow. Now I can skim through the images only with the mouse(wheel)

I found this hint while I was working with irb (ruby) and realized that I can’t type ö, ä and ü. To enable umlaut(e) do:

Then put the following in your ~/.inputrc (if it’s not there create the file in your home dir):


set meta-flag ON
set input-meta On
set conver-meta Off
set output-meta On
set show-all-if-ambiguos On


That’s it. Restart Terminal.app or do “source ~/.inputrc”

When you install applications through the installer most of the time a pkg file is created under /Library/Receipts. Those pkg’s do not contain the uninstalled application but (among other things) the file “Archive.bom”. This file lists all files with their full path installed by the application. Sadly Archiv.bom is not a normal flat text file but a “Archive.bom: Mac OS X bill of materials (BOM) fil”. What ever this means - you have to use the

lsbom

command to view it. To get the Archive.bom one has to right click the pkg file in /Library/Receipts and issue”Show package contents”. Inside the folder “Contents” resides the bom file.
I have created this little automator workflow that should be saved as a finder plugin. When you right click the Archive.bom, it opens a new Terminal window and lists the file contents with lsboom. Next version will be able to search the Archive.bom file inside the pkg file.

UPDATE:
The new version works with the pkg files. Just right click on it and select the “lsbom” automator plugin. It uses the frontmost Terminal window to display the result.

This installs itself in the contextual menu. When you CTRL+klick on a folder “Open Terminal Here” will open a… you get the point Link

First I followed this howto. Then I installed the mysql gem like this: gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql. A friend pointed me to this tutorial on Onlamp.
