- Enable Quick Look’s special X-Ray mode, which works in both 10.5 and 10.6 (this is the only one of these tips that works in 10.5). The secret to this tip is to run this command in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder QLEnableXRayFolders 1
- Select Exposé windows by name using the keyboard.
- Use new math formulas in Spotlight.
- Limit the Dock’s pop-up menus to just those provided by the system, suppressing application-provided menus.
- Force Dictionary to open definitions from Spotlight and Services in just one window. By default, each definition opens in its own window in 10.6. The secret to this tip is to use this command in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Dictionary ProhibitNewWindowForRequest -bool TRUE
- Gain fine control over QuickTime X Player’s fast forward and rewind speeds.
