Hey guys, I was wondering if there was an API, however obscure it would be, that would allow someone to send data to another process's stdin stream under Mac OS X. Under Linux, if I remember correctly, you can use the filesystem in /proc to access these streams (with the correct permissions, of course). I dunno. Mach ports, anyone? ...

iPhone Simulator is version 4.0 (211.1) I know, this is a weird question for S.O., but I figured if anyone has seen this, it would be someone here. I have a MacBook Pro with a 22" lcd attached.

It there a way to make files opened for editing in the terminal open in Textedit instead? I mean, where a command might open a file for editing (like git commit), instead of opening that file in vi or emacs, it would open in Textedit (or perhaps another Textediting application of you choosing, such as Coda). And as a bonus question, is...

Hi, I have a cocoa based app with only a webview catching the entire window. Sometimes when I click on stuff on the page loaded by the webview - the click seems to "jump through" and arrive to the window behind mine, instead of being handled by my window/webview.

I'm trying to get started with OpenCV by trying to write a simple screen recorder -- one that can perform continuous or polled capture of a GUI window on Mac.
