Starting Eclipse from the OS X Terminal posted on: 3/21/07
Description:

The other night I had a need to restart Eclipse with the -clean flag. No big deal, I've done this a thousand times. Except - and didn't you just know there'd be one of those?...I've never done it on OS X (have I mentioned that I'm a new Mac user?). Hmmm.

Google is your friend.

Cron-ic Memory Lapse posted on: 3/23/07
Description:

I don't know whether it's something I'm missing or something extra that I have, but I can never, and I mean never, remember the order of arguments when I need to create a new cron job.

With CronniX, this is no longer a problem.

A Better System Clock/Calendar in OS X posted on: 3/20/07
Description:

As a long time Windows user, one of my frustrations has always been the lack of a decent date/time display. When I transitioned to the Mac a few months ago, I hoped that particular frustration would be alleviated. Although it was better, it still wasn't all it should be, in my mind.

A few weeks ago, I just got fed up with the display on my Windows machine and I went on a serious hunt for a better system clock. I found one that was close, but not quite good enough. I'll have to carry on with the paltry OS implementation. On the periphery of that search, though, I ran across a replacement for the OS X system clock that looked pretty solid so I decided to install it.
