// Given a query string "?to=email&why=because&first=John&Last=smith"
// getUrlVar("to")  will return "email"
// getUrlVar("last") will return "smith"

// Slightly more concise and improved version based on http://www.jquery4u.com/snippets/url-parameters-jquery/
function getUrlVar(key){
	var result = new RegExp(key + "=([^&]*)", "i").exec(window.location.search); 
	return result && unescape(result[1]) || "";

Get Mountain Lion and Homebrew to Be Happy

1) Install XCode 4.4 into /Applications

Get it from http://developer.apple.com. You will not be able to submit apps to any stores using this XCode version, so turn away if that is something you might want to do.

2) Install Command Line Tools

In XCode's Preferences > Downloads you can install command line tools.

Ruby, RVM and Mountain Lion

Key problems

Mountain Lion (10.8) has three main difference compared to Lion (10.7):

• XCode 4.4 does not install Command Line Tools by default
• X11 isn't available anymore
• The installed version of OpenSSL has some bugs

How to work around

var system = require('system');

if (system.args.length < 5) {
  console.info("You need to pass in account name, username, password, and path to casperJS as arguments to this code.");
  phantom.exit();
}

var account = system.args[1];
var username = system.args[2];
var password = system.args[3];
