ThisSpace
One of the first things that happened to me in Spaces that irked me was its auto-switching to another space when I didn’t want it to. Sure, that’s probably what I’d want it to do a lot of the time, … Continue reading
iTerm/TextMate Here
Yes, again. Inspired by other solutions to the same problems, here are updated versions of these scripts. The primary difference is that they’re based on Apple’s droplet sample, so you can either click on them (for the current directory) or … Continue reading
Later that year…
A while back, John Gruber posted a FastScripts script to fix a loathsome Apple Mail behavior, which was shortly followed by signature-enabled improvements. Fourteen short weeks later, here’s my own version: tell application “Mail” to activate tell application “System Events” … Continue reading

TextMate Here
That was actually the first post in a series (of two). This one opens a new TextMate window on the selected item (if there’s a single item selected), or the current folder otherwise. This makes the script a lot shorter … Continue reading

A bash script to mess with the containing Terminal.app window
I found it, but I still don’t have a clue as to why I wrote it to begin with: function setgeometry { local rows=`expr “$1″ : ‘[0-9]*x([0-9]*)$’` local cols=`expr “$1″ : ‘([0-9]*)x[0-9]*$’` case $TERM in Apple_Terminal) window=`osascript -e ‘tell app … Continue reading
Zot's JavaScript Status v0.3.1
Here’s an updated one that renders as intended on more platforms. I’ve tested Mac OS X and Windows, and for the moment I’m hoping for the best on Linux (no linux machine handy right this minute). Install or Download.
Zot's JavaScript Status v0.3
I eventually got tired of waiting for the Firefox extension I had been using for this to be updated, so I did it myself. I haven’t found the need to tweak this since I rolled it a week or two … Continue reading
