Macbook Pro Tip 1
Terminal Replacement
As a lot of people recommended, I chose iTerm 2 as my main terminal under OS X. There are 3 features that I care about:
- separated windows and tabs:
Ctr + D
orCtr + Shift + D
will split the window horizontally or vertically, andCtr + T
will create another new tab, and the switch between them is convenientCtr + [ or ]
Ctr + { or }
Command + 1, 2, 3
, just try that, it is cool. - color scheme setting is easy, and there are solarized color themes for iTerm 2.
- toggle full screen by
Command + Enter
.
Emacs
Firstly, we need to install Emacs, I removed all the original emacs files pre-installed with OS X. And, I didn’t choose the Emacs for Mac binary install package, I preferred to install it from HomeBrew with the command below:
brew install emacs --cocoa --use-git-head --HEAD
It will take about 1 minite to compile from the source code, but I think it will be much stable. I will update my settings to github when I finish the basic setup.
