Use Growl for Entourage Notifications | 1 Comment

Posted in Snippets on 4th June 2008, 9:48 am by

I really don’t like the Entourage notification widget so I looked into using Growl notification instead and found this: Use Growl for Entourage Notifications

Having tried it, it works really nicely and is much better than the built-in notifier. Next I’ll be trying out FetchExc to see if I can dump Entourage entirely!

    I’d like to use this, but I’m not sure what to do with the script. I’m brand new to Mac, so I’d appreciate if you can tell me where to put the script and how to get it to run with Entourage.

    Thanks!

GNU screen: open tab in current working directory|(1)

A nice trick for having screen open a new tab in the same directory as the one you’re currently in. To use it add it to your .screenrc

# Open new window in current dir.
bind c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"
bind ^c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"

Ubuntu: add-apt-repository: command not found|(3)

When you’re using a minimal Ubuntu install if you find the ‘add-apt-repository’ command is missing (it’s useful for adding PPAs and other repositories), then simply run:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
