This is a collection of scripts and reference points for my personal OS X setup. Feel free to use. Here’s a summary of each tool:
Instructions and a shell script for creating a folder that auto-deletes files in it that are older than 21 days. Useful for storing screenshots and other temp files.
My personal color-coded background images. Four of them: one per each workspace.
This lets you right-click on an image file in Finder, and automatically copy it to your clipboard as it would appear in a URL for an image in my repo. Useful as a kind of personalized “Get Dropbox URL”.
Small but plucky collection of dotfiles, or dotfile-like files (they might not necessarily be prefixed with a . and/or live in ~).
Adds a shortcut for screenshotting: Saves the original size, and a half-size, to a folder on the desktop. Useful because retina-sized-screenshots are way too big.
A tabular list of the most useful software for priming a new Mac for web development. Also includes descriptions, prices, and a logical dock order for them.
