Hallo Herr Werntges,

ich habe für diese Aufgabe das FOX Toolkit in der Version 1.4 benutzt. Da es kein Package für Mac OS X gab, habe ich FOX und FXRuby (als gem) von Hand installiert. Bei der Gelegenheit wollte ich aber auch die aktuellste Version benutzen. Erfreulicherweise läuft es unter Mac OS X problemlos
Ich musste nur am Anfang daran denken einmal den X-Server zu starten…

… to whom it may concern

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.

KeyTweak

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”

I hope so!
