I just cloned an old repository containing some linux kernel modules (don't ask). If I clone on a linux machine, everything is fine. On my Mac however, someone (presumably Mac OS X) makes binary changes to the modules. I already disabled autocrlf. Here's the output of git diff -p --stat directly after clone: .../kernel/net/ipv4/netfil...
Hi, all I've tried to insert a piece of code in a prototype file system written in FUSE that can get ppid from the calling process id (fuse_get_context()->pid). It works well for normal read/write operations. However, if one program is going to execute a file (only on Mac OSX), this fs quits after hanging for a long time. The code is fo...
I am compiling a program that embeds Python, in particular Python v3.1. On my system I have several versions of the Python framework: 3.1, 2.5, 2.6. When I pass "-framework Python" to g++ when compiling, g++ seems to pull in version 2.6 (lives at "/System/Library/Frameworks/") instead of version 3.1 (lives at "/Library/Frameworks/"), res...

Sometimes when switching branches using Git (version 1.7.2.1) it does not seem to remove the files/directories I created specific to the branch I switched away from. Neither does it list it as untracked when running git status or any log entries for those files. This only happens occasionally and I'm not sure why or how to reset it so t...
I want to hide the cursor from a statusbar app and i've done some research. It seems as though the solution to this problem was found a while ago: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1412084 or http://lists.apple.com/archives/carbon-dev/2006/Jan/msg00555.html But the code that is referred to will not compile. Do any of you guys know eit...

I have a program that gets a KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE with EXC_BAD_ACCESS in a very strange place when running multithreaded and I haven't the faintest idea how to troubleshoot it further. This is on MacOS 10.6 using GCC. The very strange place that it gets this is when entering a function. Not on the first line of the function, but th...

I'm new to use Applescript to create services in Snow Leopard. I found myself often trying to open a link in Safari with Firefox. I know there are ways to open a page url with FF but I want to open any link inside a page with FF. I think using Applescript to create a service might be a good idea and so far I found this: openFirefoxURL("...
Given a sample buffer of H.264, is there a way to extract the frame it represents as an image? I'm using QTKit to capture video from a camera and using a QTCaptureMovieFileOutput as the output object. I want something similar to the CVImageBufferRef that is passed as a parameter to the QTCaptureVideoPreviewOutput delegate method. For s...
I am using Core Data to manage objects and using a NSTableView to display those objects. The table columns are binded to objects' properties through a NSArrayController. When users click the delete button, all selected objects in the NSTableView will be deleted. Then only remained objects are left in the NSTableView. This works smoothl...

Are Move calls still not sent by the window server, which makes registering CGScreenRegisterMoveCallback callbacks with CGScreenRegisterMoveCallback() futile? According to http://lists.apple.com/archives/quartz-dev/2008/Jan/msg00052.html this is a bug that's yet to be corrected (though it's been almost 3 years now). Is there an alterna...

Entering python gets me the 2.x version that came on the computer. Any advice on how I can access python3 from the terminal? Thanks ...
Mac OS X determines what area to scroll by the mouse position. Windows does this by what application is active. So I thought anyway. If Notepad++ is the active application in Windows, I can scroll underlying applications by placing the mouse pointer on them. But this seems like the only application with this behaviour. Windows Explorer ...

I need to know if there is a terminal replacement for Mac which allows me to store frequently used or long command snippets. e.g. this one: netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {'print $5'}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -nk 1 this is quite long to type again and again and also quite hard to remember So I would prefer to just store them in sof...
