I was reading "Expose Hidden Feature " in this forum. I find this is very cool. And was wondering if there's more nifty things that I could learn about using Terminal ?

Thanks

PS- and one more thing- how can I type Expose with small line above of 'e' at the end of Expose word?

Option-e followed by an e

With the Terminal you can unlock a whole heap of "hidden" features of OS X. Two really good introductions to using Unix in OS X are:
1)http://www.osxfaq.com/Tutorials/LearningCenter/
2)http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/ma...ions/unix.html

Once you get started with these, the sky's no limit.

There's also MacOSXHints, which has a huge archive of cool things you can do, both with the terminal and without. Just start browsing the archives.

My favorite one from there is the following, which adds a cool transparency effect to hidden apps in the dock:

Code:
defaults write com.apple.dock showhidden -bool true

Then, login and logout or force the dock to restart!

If you don't like it, run the same command with "false" instead of "true" to get the Dock back to normal.

Excellent.. I'm getting there.

These links are helpful and I'm wondering if there's more quick short hints like the dock I just learned?

Thanks in advance.
