### Mail

#### Vacuum Mail Index
The AppleScript code below will quit Mail, vacuum the SQLite index, then re-open Mail. On a large email database that hasn't been optimized for a while, this can provide significant improvements in responsiveness and speed.
```applescript
(*
Speed up Mail.app by vacuuming the Envelope Index
Code from: http://www.hawkwings.net/2007/03/03/scripts-to-automate-the-mailapp-envelope-speed-trick/
Originally by "pmbuko" with modifications by Romulo
Updated by Brett Terpstra 2012
Updated by Mathias Törnblom 2015 to support V3 in El Capitan and still keep backwards compability
*)

tell application "Mail" to quit
set os_version to do shell script "sw_vers -productVersion"
set mail_version to "V2"
considering numeric strings
    if "10.10" <= os_version then set mail_version to "V3"
end considering

set sizeBefore to do shell script "ls -lnah ~/Library/Mail/" & mail_version & "/MailData | grep -E 'Envelope Index$' | awk {'print $5'}"
do shell script "/usr/bin/sqlite3 ~/Library/Mail/" & mail_version & "/MailData/Envelope\\ Index vacuum"

set sizeAfter to do shell script "ls -lnah ~/Library/Mail/" & mail_version & "/MailData | grep -E 'Envelope Index$' | awk {'print $5'}"

display dialog ("Mail index before: " & sizeBefore & return & "Mail index after: " & sizeAfter & return & return & "Enjoy the new speed!")

tell application "Mail" to activate
```

### Safari

#### Enable Develop Menu and Web Inspector
```bash
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeInternalDebugMenu -bool true && \
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDevelopMenu -bool true && \
defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitDeveloperExtrasEnabledPreferenceKey -bool true && \
defaults write com.apple.Safari com.apple.Safari.ContentPageGroupIdentifier.WebKit2DeveloperExtrasEnabled -bool true && \
defaults write NSGlobalDomain WebKitDeveloperExtras -bool true
```

#### Get Current Page Data
Other options: `get source`, `get text`.
```bash
osascript -e 'tell application "Safari" to get URL of current tab of front window'
```

```

#### Prevent Time Machine from Prompting to Use New Hard Drives as Backup Volume
```bash
defaults write com.apple.TimeMachine DoNotOfferNewDisksForBackup -bool true
```

## Developer

### Vim

#### Compile Sane Vim
Compiling MacVim via Homebrew with all bells and whistles, including overriding system Vim.

```

#### Neovim
Install the development version of this modern Vim drop-in alternative via Homebrew.
```bash
brew tap neovim/neovim && \
brew install --HEAD neovim
```

### Xcode

#### Install Command Line Tools without Xcode
```bash
xcode-select --install
```

#### Remove All Unavailable Simulators
```bash
xcrun simctl delete unavailable
```


## Disks and Volumes

#### Disable Sudden Motion Sensor
Leaving this turned on is useless when you're using SSDs.
```bash
sudo pmset -a sms 0
```

#### Eject All Mountable Volumes
The only reliable way to do this is by sending an AppleScript command to Finder.
```bash
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to eject (every disk whose ejectable is true)'
```

#### Repair File Permissions
You don't have to use the Disk Utility GUI for this.
```bash
sudo diskutil repairPermissions /
```
> Beginning with OS X El Capitan, system file permissions are automatically protected. It's no longer necessary to verify or repair permissions with Disk Utility. ([Source](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201560))

#### Set Boot Volume
```bash
bless --mount "/path/to/mounted/volume" --setBoot
```

#### Show All Attached Disks and Partitions
```bash
diskutil list
```

#### View File System Usage
A continuous stream of file system access info.
```bash
sudo fs_usage
```

### Disk Images

#### Create Disk Image From Folder Contents
```bash
hdiutil create -volname "Volume Name" -srcfolder /path/to/folder -ov diskimage.dmg
```

If you'd like to encrypt the disk image:
```bash
hdiutil create -encryption -stdinpass -volname "Volume Name" -srcfolder /path/to/folder -ov encrypted.dmg
```

By default, you'll be prompted for a password. You can automate that by piping in a password:
```bash
echo -n YourPassword | hdiutil create -encryption -stdinpass -volname "Volume Name" -srcfolder /path/to/folder -ov encrypted.dmg
```

#### Burn Disk Images to DVD
This command applies to .iso, .img and .dmg images.
```bash
hdiutil burn /path/to/image_file
```

#### Disable Disk Image Verification
```bash
defaults write com.apple.frameworks.diskimages skip-verify -bool true && \
defaults write com.apple.frameworks.diskimages skip-verify-locked -bool true && \
defaults write com.apple.frameworks.diskimages skip-verify-remote -bool true
```

#### Make Volume OS X Bootable
```bash
bless --folder "/path/to/mounted/volume/System/Library/CoreServices" --bootinfo --bootefi
```

#### Mount Disk Image
```bash
hdiutil attach /path/to/diskimage.dmg
```

#### Unmount Disk Image
```bash
hdiutil detach /dev/disk2s1
```

#### Write Disk Image to Volume
Like the Disk Utility "Restore" function.
```bash
sudo asr -restore -noverify -source /path/to/diskimage.dmg -target /Volumes/VolumeToRestoreTo
```


## Dock

#### Add a Stack with Recent Applications
```bash
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '{ "tile-data" = { "list-type" = 1; }; "tile-type" = "recents-tile"; }' && \
killall Dock
```

#### Add a Space
```bash
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '{"tile-type"="spacer-tile";}' && \
killall Dock
```

#### Set Auto Show/Hide Delay
The float number defines the show/hide delay in ms.
```bash
defaults write com.apple.Dock autohide-delay -float 0 && \
killall Dock
```

#### Show Hidden App Icons
```bash
# Enable
defaults write com.apple.dock showhidden -bool true && \

#### Set Software Update Server
This should only be done for testing purposes or unmanaged clients. To use network-wide, either correctly set up DNS along with [Apple SUS service](http://krypted.com/mac-security/using-the-software-update-service-on-mountain-lion-server/) and bind your clients via OpenDirectory. Alternatively, use [Reposado](https://github.com/wdas/reposado) together with correct network DNS settings to make resolution transparent. [Margarita](https://github.com/jessepeterson/margarita) looks nice to have as well.
```bash
# Use own SUS
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://su.example.com:8088/index.sucatalog

# Reset to Apple SUS
sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
```
