Thanks! Kent!

RacerX, I'm not going to argue with you anymore (especially considering your lack of reason and obviously not reading what I or any of the others in this conversation have posted) but when you open: Start | Programs | Windows Explorer on a Windows machine, you are opening the Windows...

I'm with you nkuvu. I see from the post above yours that the person who replied to my post obviously cannot do what we are looking for as compared to Windows Explorer even though he says he can. List view doesn't cut it. You put it simply above when you mentioned keeping the right pane...

I used Brickhouse to configure a totally empty firewall--that is I didn't choose any options during the configuration helper (wizard) and chose to Allow all in and out as the defaults. Then I added a rule to block a certain UDP port From Any, To Any. I then updated and installed the...

You're very welcome. I really wish the Finder could do this, too. The fact that someone HAD to write a script to open two Finder windows in column view one on top of another just to achieve this illustrates the point. (I learned of this script early in my OS X messings and I think it is...

Some kind of a Finder hack to replicate the OS 9 "labels" functionality would be great. I've never used OS 9 but I can see how I WOULD use labels if they existed. I can't believe Apple pulled this functionality. I'm sure many OS 9 people miss them. T h e r e m u s t b e a w a y! Kent!

Um, no you can't. Read what he's trying to do one more time and you'll see that with Column view, this can't be accomplished. He wants to see the contents of one really deep directory and then find another really deep directory somewhere else at the same time and in the same Finder window...

I think you will have problems if you move the Applications folder. I believe that OS X requires it to reside at: /Applications and that having it at, say: /Volumes/AnotherPartition/Applications might confuse some of the built-in utilities. I think this is the one place where OS X just...

Since we're not so busy here, I thought I would just ask this instead of trying to search for the answer in past posts. What I would like to know is: what is the BEST place to start to learn Cocoa? I've already built Apple's Currency Converter demo and am reading the Inside Cocoa: OOP...

But, but, but.... ARGH! I've done OOP in Pascal (yes, it can be done), C/C++, proprietary languages in the environmental controls industry, OOP type BASIC on multiple platforms, you name it, and all of them use dot notation. Yikes! ARGH! (Oh, did I already say that?) Kent!

Why on earth does Objective C use [someObject someMethod] to access an object's methods and properties instead of using standard C/C++ dot notation (someObject.someMethod)? Kent!

I haven't noticed that, but I have another Terminal.app closing issue: I've configured my terminals to close when I type "exit" at the command line and hit <Return>. About 90% of the time when I exit the shell, the window closes. BUT, the other 10% of the time, the shell ends but the window...

I was wondering if someone could give me an idea what Office 2001 is like and possibly how it compares to Office v.X. I have the option of purchasing Office 2001 for a very, very low price brand new and I was wondering if it would be worth it. It's about 1/3 the price I'll have to pay for...

Thanks all! Worked like a charm! Kent! !

Solved! I reinstalled just the DevTools.pkg package using Pacifist. Thanks all, Kent!

I thought I would give this Cocoa thing a go so since I had the Developer Tools already installed, I sat down with my Currency Converter Tutorial and was ready to get started. As per the instructions, I opened Developer/Applications and double-clicked on ProjectBuilder to start my new...

I'm a new Mac convert (from the Windows AND UNIX world) and I must say that I was very surprised by two things our "most advanced operating system on the planet" can't do (especially considering it's UNIX based): 1. Allow multiple-user logins (EVERY UNIX system I've ever used can do this and...

Where would one find these Rhapsody images for x86? Were they something that shipped on a product disk or something? Or what? Were they opensourced? Thanks.
