Automounting NFS share in OS X into /Volumes

I have spent quite a bit of time figuring out automounts of NFS shares in OS X...

Somewhere along the line, Apple decided allowing mounts directly into /Volumes should not be possible:

/etc/auto_master (see last line):

#
# Automounter master map
#

+auto_master # Use directory service

My WeeChat configuration

This configuration is not maintained anymore. You should think twice before using it, Breaking change and security issue will likely eventually happens as any abandonned project.

Command to create installable OS X USB drive.

Creating a bootable macOS USB installer

  • First, plug in an 8GB (or bigger) USB drive, and use Disk Utility to erase it
  • If you use the default settings, you should wind up with a blank drive at /Volumes/Untitled.

With that volume in place, and with the macOS installer sitting in /Applications/Install\ macOS\ [VERSION].app, run the following command in your terminal to create a bootable install media (for Sierra):

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app --nointeraction
Tweetbot for Mac Super Secret Settings
You will need to use the Terminal app to change these settings:
# these all affect the text in a DM or new tweet - the default is yes for all of them
defaults write com.tapbots.TweetbotMac TextAutomaticQuoteSubstitution -bool NO
defaults write com.tapbots.TweetbotMac TextAutoCorrect -bool NO
defaults write com.tapbots.TweetbotMac TextContinuousSpellChecking -bool NO
defaults write com.tapbots.TweetbotMac TextAutomaticTextReplacement -bool NO

Some useful Git aliases that I use every day
#
# Working with branches
#
# Get the current branch name (not so useful in itself, but used in
# other aliases)
branch-name = "!git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD"
# Push the current branch to the remote "origin", and set it to track
# the upstream branch
publish = "!git push -u origin $(git branch-name)"

This is a guard that tracks down UIKit access on threads other than main. This snippet is taken from the commercial iOS PDF framework http://pspdfkit.com, but relicensed under MIT. Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…

tmux-vim integration to transparently switch between tmux panes and vim split windows

I use tmux splits (panes). Inside one of these panes there's a Vim process, and it has its own splits (windows).

In Vim I have key bindings C-h/j/k/l set to switch windows in the given direction. (Vim default mappings for windows switching are the same, but prefixed with C-W.) I'd like to use the same keystrokes for switching tmux panes.

An extra goal that I've solved with a dirty hack is to toggle between last active panes with C-\.

Here's how it should work:
