Eight Terminal Utilities Every OS X Command Line User Should Know · mitchchn.me

If you’re migrating from Linux, you’ll find many familiar commands work the way you expect. But power users often aren’t aware that OS X comes with a number of its own text-based utilities not found on any other operating system.

The output quality was really bad – it contained what I can only describe as severe posterization or banding in the shadows, which also had the effect of amplifying the noise in the movie.

We can do that with a little Perl wrapper called ColorDiff. Get ColorDiff First, install MacPorts if you haven’t already. First snag — my new employer‘s network firewall blocks rsync for some reason, so sudo port selfupdate didn’t work for me. However, turns out that I can also get the ports tree using Subversion or tarball via HTTP. Next, install ColorDiff using the command sudo port install colordiff. Configure Subversion Client.

Turn Off the New "Elastic Scrolling" in OS X Lion. I agree.

Mac OS can't detect any interface - Wireshark Q&A

Move and click the mouse via code. Most OS X apps can have their interface elements accessed by AppleScript, and so anything can be scripted. Unfortunately, not all apps use an Aqua interface, especially games with game-engine-rendered interface elements. This means AppleScript can't find buttons, etc., to click on, and you're out of luck trying to automate actions. Recently, I was given the unpleasant task of automating actions in such unfriendly apps. Scipy Superpack. How to solve "assembler for architecture ppc not installed" errors after installing XCode4.
