Increase OSX "Recent Places
Raw
recent-places.md

Increase the number of "Recent Places" that OSX shows in save dialogs. This allows you to quickly save files without having to dig through nested folders.

  1. Open your terminal and run defaults write .GlobalPreferences NSNavRecentPlacesLimit -int 10 && killall Finder
  2. OSX will now save 10, instead of the default. You won't see it take effect right away, but only after you save 5 more things.
  3. Enjoy your better life.
