DashboardStarter

August 10, 2005

Dashboard is a great addition to Tiger. Unfortunately it takes several seconds to load and refresh the widgets the first time you bring up Dashboard.

I've written a small application that brings up Dashboard and closes it right away: DashboardStarter (24K). Drag the app to your login items¹ and have Dashboard load the widgets in the background.

cdparanoia Installer

July 4, 2005

For anyone interested in high quality CD audio rips I've put together a OS X installation package (154K) for the great cdparanoia command line tool which was built from Tobias Sargeant's little known port.

Ripping songs from a disk is straight forward. To extract an entire disc, putting each track in a separate AIFF file, open Terminal and type: /usr/local/bin/cdparanoia -Bf

Consult the manual for more options. If you have problems with copy protected disks try a different CD-ROM drive.

I'm running this binary with Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) but it should work with 10.3 (Panther) as well. However, I am not the developer of this software. The package is provided as is, without any warranty.
