A lot of Windows user switching over to Mac seems to confuse about the green button on the top left of a window, expecting it to maximize the window to full screen. But in fact that button is really not the same maximize button as Window’s world, but rather the Zoom button which merely maximize the Window to the content.
Here is a little video that explains the differences, and as well teaches you how to create a shortcut key for it (or click here to watch my video on youtube) :
I needed curl to do sftp recently, and found that the curl version came with Leopard is outdated and does not have the library “libssh2″ for sftp access.
curl -V would show you what options/library was compiled with it.
Then came macport which I previously installed.
Did a “port list curl” and found the curl version available was recent enough.
then “port info curl” would show you the variants available :
curl @7.19.3 (net, www)
Variants: ares, darwin_6, doc, gnutls, gss, idn, ipv6, openldap, sftp_scp, spnego, ssl, universal
sftp is there!
So simple enough, I did a “port install curl +sftp_scp” and sit back and relax.
To break it down in english : port please install curl and add the options of +sftp_scp
How simple can it be?
Macport is available at http://www.macports.org/, I recommend everyone to get it and have it installed, it is such a handy tool.
I used to own an original Apple IIc, boy did I felt special back then, when there were so many Apple IIe clones.
It was fun times, and I really made full used of the IIc, but I have no clue where it is now.
Now I want it back… anyone have one buried in the basement for sale? Please give it to me and I will take good care of it, and I will make good use of it again.
