Xcode prec-compiled headers cache and branching

http://www.stevestreeting.com/2007/09/19/branches-and-precompiled-header... shows why we should configure each project to have a different path than the defaults.

XCode and Version Control Folder

If you do this:
defaults write com.apple.InterfaceBuilder \
VersionControlDirectory "(Build, CVS, .svn)"

it will let XCode know to ignore these folders from a SCM perspective.

Getting $PATH line by line

echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n' will list the $PATH nicely.

So will this:
echo $PATH | sed "s/:/\\
> /g"

That is hitting return and getting the ">" that is not typed in.

Screen capture for the Mac.

http://www.jingproject.com/ is not a product but a project. It seems much like the windows only "snag it". Jing Project is free until it becomes a real product.

This is another one: http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ for $69
http://www.shinywhitebox.com/home/home.html for $20

Nice ISP in Box page

Updated! http://diymacserver.com/ is the updated site.

While we all want to have straight forward instructions on getting an Apache, MySQL and PHP set up on your mac, even a mini. It has been very valuable to me. Many recipes out there, this one hasn't left me re-configuring over and over again.

Mac OS X Lepoard Server had some issues

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1477930&tstart=0
According to this link, Mac OS X Server 10.5.x is junk. 10.4.x seems "Rock Solid". Personally, I am not entirely sure what the server software gets you.

HTML Help (CHM) Tools and Information

Do you want to read a Microsoft Help file (CHM) on your mac? Or maybe even a linux box? Use this:
CHM lib0.38 it was mentioned on Mac Geeky: Converting CHM Files to Something ... Useful. It really does work.

Operating Systems

Most people still use Windows. A few use a Mac. Fewer still use Linux.

VMWare Fusion does not allow 10.5 OS X to be installed, OS X Server 10.5 can be virtualized.
