Playing with my new MacBook Pro’s touchpad, I really miss being able to move and resize windows with it. Five finger gesture maybe? Or it could replace the four finger actions.
The up/down to show desktop/all app windows is useful but the left/right appswitching feels broken. I mean, swipe 4 fingers to get the appswitching interface on screen, and then what? The only way I can get something to happen is to switch to two fingers to scroll through the apps and then press space or return, or select app with one finger. If I need to press buttons on the keyboard I’d rather just cmd+tab. If i need to select apps with the pointer, I’d rather click the dock.
While I’m at it, a gesture to switch tabs in safari would be nice too. Three fingers does that in Adium. Actually, a key combination that switches tabs even when you are in a textbox would be nice.
update: Four finger click to activate app in the app switch interface. Hasn’t worked for me until just now thou. Strange.
Just added the service of disqus so ppl can let me know how helpful my blog was to find where to get effects.core.js and how to install ATI catalyst drivers on acer aspire laptops ;)
$ vlc --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst:=8081}' \
--extraintf http /path/to/video.avi
then point you’r video player to http://your.server:8081
Easy!
(might need to change your mux according to video format or something. ts seems fine for most .avi)
Update: Added the extra interface “http” that functions as a remote using a web interface. Just surf to http://your.server:8080 to pause, seek etc. It needs port 8080 so I changed stream port to 8081
I’m playing with jQuery today. In the documentation they explain how to animate colors. On the main page for jQuery effects they hint that the file “effects.core.js” is needed, but I can’t find ANY instructions on HOW TO GET THE DAMN FILE! The only thing you can get from the download page is the main jQuery.js file. They also have links to svn repository, but what? They expect regular users to checkout and “build” jQuery?
I finally found a copy of the file by looking under the “View Source” tab for a demo…
To save you from pulling you’r hair out; Here it is!
Edit: As Jean-Marie Tinghir pointed out, the effects are in the UI bundle. Quite obvious, no? no..

How did this happen O_O ?
