Setting up a Lion Dev Environment

environment

• web & file sharing on

• key remap for macbook & pckeyboardhack -- apple q --> apple shift q -- caps lock --> backspace -- key repeat initial wait: 500 --> 250, wait 83 -> 30 -- don't show in menu bar

• copy iTunes music (22gb)

• finder -- add path icon to toolbar

• Make hidden Dock icons transparent defaults write com.apple.Dock showhidden -bool true

• todo in lion: remove spaces animation, save dialog animation

• I use my shortcuts to move windows, and would never tolerate a feature that required waiting: Stop (slow down) Spaces from switching spaces if your mouse presses against the edge of the desktop: defaults write com.apple.dock workspaces-edge-delay -float 60 && killall Dock

• hot corners (BL: desktop, BR: mission, TR: windows)

• macpilot -- system: disable downloaded file warning dialogs, use expanded save dialog by default

• system prefs: disable guest user

• dock: auto hide

• prefpane: universal access -> seeing -> options -> scroll w/ modifier key to zoom

software

• chrome -- google voice, lip sum generator
• notational velocity
• vlc
• skype
• xscope
• istat menus -- show multiple CPU cores as one item, -- memory/disk-usage/sensors/battery off, disk activity on
• dropbox
• unrarx
• alfred power pack.
  -- global hotkeys, option `/1/2: terminal, chrome, ruby mine, iTunes, notational velocity -- scripts: flush dns, lipsum, external ip
• simbl -- maximizer (to fullscreen rubymine)

development

• visor -- system keyboard shortcut to match tab hotkeys with chrome
• git
• rvm
• xcode
• homebrew
• firefox
• github
• postgres: (http://tammersaleh.com/posts/installing-postgresql-for-rails-3-1-on-lion or http://nextmarvel.net/blog/2011/09/brew-install-postgresql-on-os-x-lion/) prepend path: /usr/local/bin brew install postgresql initdb /usr/local/var/commonplace_development postgres -D /usr/local/var/commonplace_development rake db:setup gem install pg
• rubymine (auto installs java runtime)
• ruby-1.9.3 (required gcc from https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer)
• bash_profile -- list of aliases for common typos
• remap keys: home: /001, end: /005 to get unix-style beginning/end of line behavior
• add prompt color: http://jdcargile.com/blog/?p=280 and PS1="[\e[1;32m]\w[\e[0m] "
