    Right-Click and Scroll

    If Apple provides a multi-button mouse it should definitely be an option only. One of the great things about MacOS is that you can do everything with one button. This doesn't mean you can have shortcuts using other buttons, but the gesture is optional. Ever try using a program like S-Plus for...

    Cocoa vs. Carbon

    I have more problems with Cocoa apps than with Carbon apps. Cocoa apps tend to assume file paths are constant, and I hate the windows-ish behavior of Cocoa text views.

    Do you like the dock?

    The Dock does just about everything in the most obtuse wasteful manner. If I could I would replace it with a global floating list of apps. The reason I can't is the Dock uses a private API which allows it to know which apps need attention and also how to activate specific windows. Apple...

    Please! Anybody have Mouseworks 1.1b2?

    You're staring at a file downloaded from Kensington's server not Apple's, and if you actually inspected the contents you will find it is version 1.1. Sigh, what a goose chase

    Please! Anybody have Mouseworks 1.1b2?

    No, Apple does NOT have it. They merely link to Kensington, which doesn't have it either.

    How to burn bin/cue file pairs

    It may sometimes be faster to type a specific sequence of keystrokes than a specific sequence of mouse clicks, but determining that sequence of keystrokes will usually take longer. The primary advantage of a GUI is familiarity. A certain appearance implies a behavior, or at least used to in...

    How to burn bin/cue files with Mac OS X

    How? Toast can't even burn bin images which have a sector size other than the three you can select from. Please don't say binchunker or bchunk, that program never ever works for these images.

    How to burn bin/cue file pairs

    I couldn't disagree more. There are tons of things which I can control in OS X which cannot be done in the terminal. The only reason I find the terminal useful is because a lot of other people use that interface. It isn't any more low-level than a graphical app, it's just an arcane interface for...

    How to burn bin/cue file pairs

    buggs, I didn't write this software nor am I selling anything. This is an FYI. If this is not what "most mac users need and expect" what pray tell is my incentive? If you want what you ask for, go bug Roxio. <insert middle finger here>

    How to burn bin/cue files with Mac OS X

    I compiled cdrdao for Mac OS X. This can burn bin/cue files very easily. The only cue/bin pair which haven't worked for me thus far had spaces and hyphens in the filename. Changing the filename and editing the cue file to reflect that solved the problem. You can download my binary from here...

    10.1 New and Hidden Features

    POP is a separate port (110), you don't need to turn it on. You either have it or you don't. The POP and IMAP addresses are usually the same, and mac.com is no exception.
