Hi, I'm not sure if this is do-able via AppleScript and/or Automator…but I'd like to be able to: a) launch an application (I know this can be done pretty easily by AppleScript or Automator) b) once the application is launched, use AppleScript or Automator to select specific menu items. e.g. I'd like to launch Excel 2008 (I have the ...
I'm looking at IKImageDemo supplied by Apple, the rotate round-slider is linked to a setRotation: method in the FirstResponder. However, none of the objects in the project seem to HAVE such a method, and yet the code works. I'm trying copy this into my own project, and MY FirstResponder doesn't have a setRotation: method, so I'm not sur...

running 'sudo gem list --local' and 'gem list --local' gives me differing results, my gem path is set to my home folder and only contain the gems from 'gem list --local'. So it's probably not good to have gems installed in different directories on my computer, should I have the gem path set differently? and should I always use sudo when...
When I execute ri ... in a terminal on my Mac, I get, maybe, 50 blank lines, then the output I'm expecting, then a last line: (END) , with (END) displayed with white letters on black background. I am not returned to bash, however -- ri is still running, and I can't enter anything. Also, why all the blank lines? What's up? Cary ...
So we are pushing to create good processes in our office. I work in a web shop that has been doing web sites for over a decade. And we don't use version control. I know! It's bad, not my fault. I'm the guy with a SoftE background pushing for this at a minimum. The tech lead has been looking into it. We all use Mac workstations and ...
What is the proper way to run something like $sudo touch folder_name or $sudo rm from within Objective-C/Cocoa? I'm changing and moving around a few files and need elevated privileges. Any code sample would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ...
Hi, I was just wondering if there was an easy way to set an NSTableView to allow it to reorder its rows without writing any pasteboard code. I only need it to be able to do this internally, within one table. I have no issue writing the pboard code, except that I'm fairly sure that I saw Interface Builder have a toggle for this somewher...

Hi, I've seen that i already have both svn and svnserve (and a .subversion dir in my home). svnserve should be svn server, as far as i know, but how can i run it? I need something very basic, not linked to apache or any server, just to version files on my own computer for personal development (svn is integrated with TextMate that i use)....
I'm working on a project in Ruby right now that is essentially a web-app. We like the format of web-apps and some of the natural agile advantages we have building for the web. However, we want to be able to package our application and distribute it in a standalone format. Ideally, we would like to essentially make a .app package for Ma...
