I would like to use message queues in one of my programs. Does OSX not support either POSIX or System V message queues or am I setting up my programs wrong? /usr/include/sys/msg.h (for SysV message queues) and /usr/include/mqueue.h (for POSIX message queues) do not exist. I tried compiling an...

You could use the standard Unix utility, cron. Even though it is not GUI-based, it does exactly what you want. It's very easy to set up. Here's a great, short guide to cron: http://www.itworld.com/Comp/2378/swol-0825-unix101/ I used this guide before and it is very helpful. You will not need...

Well AppleWorks needs some hard-core work. A lot of use novice/advanced users find it a bore. It seems to me that StarOffice for OSX is a really great thing for us Mac users. We no longer have to use MS Office for a powerful office tasks. We don't have to stick out the dough either. A free...

I'm not sure if you can compile a script, but I'm sure that modperl for Apache caches a lot of repeatedly executed code (perhaps in machine language?) to make the script run faster.

I have written a sorting function for a resizeable array object in C++. The sorting function requires a pointer to a user-defined comparison function to be passed as a parameter. I noticed that sometimes the program crashes with a SIGBUS and sometimes it works fine without any changes to the...
