  • Squeaky – is a web proxy, in the spirit of a2 or PHProxy
  • Archive – This free plugin extends Apple Mail with the archive feature that you know and love from MobileMe and Gmail.
  • lesspipe – is an input filter for the pager less as described in its man page. The script runs under a ksh compliant shell (ksh, bash, zsh) and allows to view files with binary content, compressed files, archives and files contained in archives.
  • YOURLS – is a small set of PHP scripts that will allow you to run your own URL shortening service (a la TinyURL). You can make it private or public, you can pick custom keyword URLs, it comes with its own API. You will love it.
  • MFCMAPI – uses Microsoft's published APIs to provide access to MAPI stores through a graphical user interface. Its purpose is to facilitate investigation of Exchange and Outlook issues and to provide developers with a canonical sample for MAPI development.
  • Markdoc – is a lightweight Markdown-based wiki system. It's been designed to allow you to create and manage wikis as quickly and easily as possible.
  • SL – (Steam Locomotive) runs across your terminal when you type "sl" as you meant to type "ls". It's just a joke command, and not usefull at all.

  • Guake – is a top-down terminal for Gnome (in the style of Yakuake for KDE, Tilda or the terminal used in Quake).

  • git-annex – allows managing files with git, without checking the file contents into git. While that may seem paradoxical, it is useful when dealing with files larger than git can currently easily handle, whether due to limitations in memory, checksumming time, or disk space.
  • Handling my music collection with git-annex – Very cool, would probably not work with iTunes…
  • Pipe Viewer – is a terminal-based tool for monitoring the progress of data through a pipeline. It can be inserted into any normal pipeline between two processes to give a visual indication of how quickly data is passing through, how long it has taken, how near to completion it is, and an estimate of how long it will be until completion.
  • tumblr2wp – Tumblr2WP makes it super simple to transfer your Tumblr content to your own, self-hosted WordPress install.
  • Naked Password – The whole idea of naked password is to encourage your users to enter stronger passwords. Our beautiful model Sally tastefully removes items of clothing as the password grows stronger.
  • beets – is the media library management system for obsessive-compulsive music geeks
  • Searching Active Directory with ldapsearch – If you think there isn't a trick to this, that means you've never tried it – leastways not on an Active Directory container that has more than 1,000 objects in it (or whatever the search limit has been set to in your environment)
  • TCP Performance problems caused be interaction between Nagle's Algorithm and Delayed ACK – The overall summary is that many of the mechanisms that make TCP so great, like fast retransmit, work best when there's a continuous flow of data for the TCP state machine to work on. If you send a block of data and then stop and wait for an application-layer acknowledgment from the other end, the state machine can falter.
  • shop – A tool to show permissions at every level in a path. Shop gives you a quick overview of the permissions of the directory in question, as well as the permissions of every directory above it in the tree.
  • monotone – is a free distributed version control system. It provides a simple, single-file transactional version store, with fully disconnected operation and an efficient peer-to-peer synchronization protocol.

  • Gruml – ermöglicht es Dir, Deine Feed-Abonnements aus Google Reader unter Mac OS X anzusehen und zu verwalten.

Mac OS X Adressbuch und Microsoft Exchange

Das tolle an einem globalen Adressbuch in Exchange ist ja, dass man an seinem Computer ein stets aktuelles Verzeichnis aller Mitarbeiter des Unternehmens hat. Zumindest wenn man Microsoft Outlook unter Windows nutzt.

Wenn man als Mac-User das lokale OS X Adressbuch mit dem Exchange-Server synchronisieren möchte, stößt man unweigerlich auf den Apple-Artikel Synchronisieren von Adressbuch und Exchange.

Dem Artikel lässt sich auch sehr gut folgen, nur funktioniert das ganze leider nicht. Wenn man den Sync-Vorgang mit dem Outlook WebAccess anstößt, findet sich in den Logs der Absturz des Programms Translator:

02.10.08 11:40:39 com.apple.syncservices.SyncServer[31062] 2008-10-02 11:40:39.647 Translator[31175:10b] Invoked to sync conduit com.apple.ExchangeConduit for entityNames: com.apple.contacts.Email Address,com.apple.contacts.Phone Number,com.apple.contacts.URL,com.apple.contacts.Contact,com.apple.contacts.Street Address

Die Apple-Discussions sind leider nicht sehr hilfreich, weiter ist zu dem Thema offenbar noch niemand gekommen und Apple hält sich bedeckt…

Aber es gibt noch eine weitere Möglichkeit in drei einfachen Schritten an das globale Exchange-Adressbuch heran zu kommen. Kein kompletter Sync, aber eine As you type Suche, und das ist ja auch schon sehr nett.

Die Anleitung startet nach dem Klick…
