Just a few useful terminal commands to mod your mac a little.
Speed up dock
defaults write com.apple.dock autohide-time-modifier -float 0.25;killall Dock
Change Keyboard Speed
defaults write -g InitialKeyRepeat -int 10 # normal minimum is 15 (225 ms)
The changes aren’t applied until you log out and back in. KeyRepeat can’t be set between 2 (30 ms) and 1 (15 ms) though.
Add Spaces to Dock
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add ‘{“tile-type”=”spacer-tile”;}’; killall Dock
List All Files
list all files in a directory and its subdirectory to a file
ls -R > list.txt
Text to TTS to file
say -v Alex -o “audiofile.aiff” -f “textfile.rtf”
