Is there a Terminal command to set alternate row colors in Mail?

I'd like to enable the alternate row colors in the message list, but the only way I can find to do it requires Developer tools to be installed.
Not bad for my Mac, but it seems a bit of a workload for the other 19 Macs in the office. There's nothing in Onyx or Secrets that'll do this.
Here's what I found on the web: http://pjkh.com/articles/2007/10/08/alternating-row-colors-in-apple-mail
There's a plug-in called WideMail which I'm using but it doesn't seem 100% stable.
Thanks

Just do the hack once and copy that version of the Mail.app application (or just the MessageViewerContents.nib file) to the other machines. Just make sure that they are running exactly the same version of Mail and MacOS X. This hack will probably not work in Snow Leopard, by the way.

Is there a Terminal command that will pick up DNS numbers?

Hello all,
Is there a Terminal command that will pick up the DNS numbers utilized by a router?
The router options don't show any, though the router is set to use PPPoA to pick them up.
I kindly TIA,
Eme '~[ )♥♪

Hi, Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
What do you mean by "pick up"?
I mean to show what the DNS numbers are that the router is using.
They are not entered in the DNS server field in Networks, TCP/IP tab.
If you mean refresh the client settings, the DNS settings are obtained as part of the DHCP lease (or PPP connection in the case of PPP).
The user/ OP is actually using PPPoA, when i googled PPPoA.. seems he is using Cisco perhaps.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-PointProtocol_overATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode)
"PPPOA or PPPoA, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over ATM, is a network protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in ATM AAL5. It is used mainly with cable modem, DSL and ADSL services.
It offers standard PPP features such as authentication, encryption, and compression. If it is used as the connection encapsulation method on an ATM based network it can reduce overhead slightly (around 0.58%) in comparison to PPPoE".
Essentially the original poster removed the OpenDNS #s from his DNS server field in the TCP/IP tab (b/c they seem to make Adobe.com inaccessible to him)
removing them & allowing his router to "pick them up from the ISP" seems to solved his problem.
However he can not, find what the numbers are that are being utilized,
b/c they are not entered as usual in the Network, & part of the DHCP lease,
or in Airport admin Utility.
I/ we wondered, if there was a Terminal command that will show what the
numbers are that are being used .
Does that help clarify what I mean? Sorry to be so long winded.

Slipstreaming: Is there a Terminal Command or an App to Slipstream 10.5 with 10.5.8 Combo Update so It Become One .DMG for Burning Purposes?

Hi. Is there a Terminal command or an App for OS X (Snow Leopard which I'm using now as a backup OS X from an external USB drive) that can slipstream the 10.5.8 combo update to 10.5 retail installer (I 10.5.8 for an experiment) to be burned to either DVD and other media like with this Windows 8 app:

Ya, I'd love to have the computers connected to the Xserver, unfortunately against my heeding, I was ordered to take them off of the Xserver, so they only have a local account that automatically logs in on startup, and even though I have Parental Controls set, I can not stop them from going to Safari, selecting an inappropriate image and setting it as the background, so now I’ve been ordered to fix all of the backgrounds that people are messing with.
My Xserver is running OS X 10.4.11 Server Edition. Yes, I would love a new server, but that’s not happening due to budget cuts.
So what I am hoping for is a command that I can put into Apple Remote Desktop v3.5.3 and push out to all of the computers via its Unix commands and reset all the desktops to their default image.

Is there anything else on the drive? If not, just erase it with Disk Utility.
If there is (not a good idea) see #E6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

Terminal command which set background a picture

hello
i am search 2 days now to find a terminal command which set a picture as wallpaper but i didnt find anything.
System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/
ScreenSaverEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background
I found that this set as background the screen saver. I tried use the path of wallpaper and then -bakcground but i got the message "permission denied".

the easiest way to do that is using apple script as follows:
tell application "System Events"
-- SET DESKTOP TO SPECIFIC PICTURE
tell current desktop
set picture rotation to 0 -- (0=off, 1=interval, 2=login, 3=sleep)
set picture to file "Mac OS X:Library:Desktop Pictures:Plants:Agave.jpg"
end tell
end tell
you can call an apple script from a shell script using osascript command. You can also directly embed it into a shell script using osascript with -e switch.

Is there a Terminal command to eject disk?

My MBP wont start up and I used my friends install disk to try and reboot it, bnut it would not work and I cannot eject the disk.
Is there a Terminal command that will eject the disk.
MY MBP won't boot so it os booting from teh Install disks.

In researching this I discovered that you can put a permanent eject button on the top menu bar as follows:
go to System->Library->Core Services->Menu Extras
There you will find a veritable treasure-trove of extras, one of which is the eject.menu.
Double-click on the item to install it on the top menu bar.
Extra bonus:
There are many other items in the Menu Extras folder that you can install on the menu bar the same way.
To remove a menu bar item, hold down the Command key and drag the menu item onto the desktop. You will get a "poof" as it disappears. Only the link is "poofed" not the actual item.

GROUP attribute ruins alternate row coloring

I had the alternate row colors working, but then when I added
the "GROUP" attribute to my
<cfoutput> tag, it's not working any more. More like
random row coloring!
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Rick
<table width="100%" border="1" cellspacing="0"
cellpadding="0">
<cfoutput query="q_reqmnts_f3" group="req_Cat">
<tr bgcolor="###iif(currentrow MOD
2,DE('c5c7c9'),DE('9dc7fc'))#">
<td height="12">#req_Cat# 
<cfoutput>
<li> #req# #Spec1# #Spec2# <a
href="
http://#Link#">#Link#</a> </li></cfoutput> 
</td>
</tr>
</cfoutput>
</table>

when you use the GROUP attribute of CFOUTPUT, your data is no
longer being output in the same order in which it was retrieved.
the CURRENTROW variable is no longer in chronological order (you're
displaying the first grouped element, then 1-n members of that
group, then repeating).
you'd need to set an iterating variable.
<cfset myRowCountVar = 0 />
<cfoutput query="q_remnts_f3" group="req_Cat">
<cfset myRowCountVar = myRowCountVar + 1 />
(now use 'myRowCountVar' to key off of to determine the
background color rather than currentrow)

How to create a Listbox in UI5 with alternate row color for the Listitems.

Hi,
I need to create a Listbox for browser (not mobile). But not getting any properties for alternate row color for the list items.
If anyone worked on this pls share.
Thanks,

Hi Guys
Chandra's solution is sweet.
Here is another one so that it will not affect the other lists (if any) that you do not want alternate colors.

Need terminal command for setting display colors ASAP!!!!!

Hello everyone,
I was being dumb and figured, oh what will this do?
I know, I know one of those button pushers...anyway I set the Display colors to 256 on my Xserve, which has no video card in it, and now all I see in Chicken of the VNC is a black screen. Im sure there is a terminal command out there where
I can ssh into the Xserve, and change the colors back, but I can't find it...could someone post it up here or point me in the right direction please?
Thanx in advance!!!!!!!

didn't even think of that...seems to be the most obvious things, seem to be the first to be overlooked.

Is there a terminal command that will close quicktime player once a video is finished?

I'm running a python program that uses subprocess.call(['open', '-a', "Quicktime Player", filename]) to open a video and defaults write com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX MGPlayMovieOnOpen 1 starts it automatically.

Is there a terminal command to disable the "Boing' sound ?

Hello, Everyone
I was wondering if any one knows if there is a terminal command that can
be used to disable the "boing" sound that folders and files make (in Tiger)
as they are being moved about the desktop and or into finder windows.
A couple of people have looked in the System preferences,usual areas but
can not locate the file for this "Boing" sound. If any one knows I would love
the answer. TIA for reading this & any help.; )

Mine doesn't make a sound when I do this.
I presume you have unchecked the "Play user interfacesound effects" > in System Preferences> Sound. The other OP wants to disable only the infamous boing. I found both the files you wrote of. Thank you very much !
I just needed to summarize this & then undoing if so desired.
Bill, please what would the command be for undoing this action ?
Launch Terminal and type this: sudo gzip
enter ~~
password prompt,
then this : /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ScreenReader.framework/Versions/A/Resources/S ounds/SpringForward.aiff
Is this correct ?
Thanks so very, very much for your expertise, patience and sharing it with me.~ Eme
