Due to the new limitations of Kerberos in OS X 10.6, I'm working on a script that offers similar functionality to what used to be available in 10.5.

The ruby script works great when called from the command line–but it will randomly exits early when called via PHP's shell exec. Here's an example of the Ruby script: #!/...

Hi, I'm tempted by Automator.app's ability to create contextual services in Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I would like to create some keyboard accessible shortcuts to manipulate text snippets by calling a shell script. However, Automator only suggests bash, Perl, Python and Ruby (among others) to allow this. But, since PHP also ships with Mac ...
