Printer windows; how to close upon completion of printed job?

Whenever I print a job to one of the 4 printers I have set up in Leopard, a window appears on the dock for that printer. In OSX 10.4.11 this also occurs, but closes automatically on completion of the job; Leopard leave it on the dock. I have a full dock, so this creates an ever shrinking dock, and I would like it to close when finished. How can I set up Leopard to do this?

When you next do a print job CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the Dock icon and select the option to close the printer upon completion from the contextual menu.

How can I find terminal window?

How can I find Terminal window?

Do I understand well that you want to use the Terminal cause you have problem with updating MS Office ?
MS Office for Mac install Internet Plugins (SharePointBrowserPlugin.plugin SharePointWebKitPlugin.webplugin).
MS Office Outlook for Mac uses also the Safari WebKit to render HTML, that mean that you have to close Safari (and/ or any other browser) during the installation and / or before update Office for Mac to prevent problems.
The best way is to fasten the MAU (Microsoft Auto Update) - icon permanent on the Dock.

Code to close terminal window?

I am running code in an IDE and want to be able to have any existing terminal window close before the code is run. This way I don't have to keep closing them manually every time I run the code again. I'm coding in C. Any ideas?
Thanks

What about setting the
Terminal -> Preferences -> Settings -> Shell -> When the shell exits: Close the window
Now just make sure that the last thing your script does is exit from the shell and your window will be closed.
Then again, do you "Really" need a Terminal session to run your code?
That is to say, running programs and scripts can be done without needing a terminal session. The Terminal session is just a window to the command line, and you do not need to display anything via the Terminal display, then there is no reason to have it open to run your program.
You can use Applescript ("do shell script" statement), or Automator ("run shell script" action), or you can use a 3rd party utility such as Platypus that will put your program or script in a double clickable app that does not need a Terminal session.
Another option is to use a different Terminal emulator, such as iTerm which also has the ability to close the window when the shell exits. It can even automatically quit iterm when the last window is closed.

How to open a terminal window in a path currently visible in the Finder?

I often need to open a terminal window with the current visible folder (a long, deep path) as the working directory.
In Windows I used to have the little "Open command window here..." hack available in the context menu in Explorer.
How can I achieve the same on OS X to avoid tediously typing the path?

open a finder window and navigate to one-level above
this visible folder.
open a terminal window.
drag the folder of interest from the finder window
into the terminal window. now you see the whole path
to that folder has been typed out for you....
so, if you wanted to 'cd' into that folder in
terminal, you'd type cd, then a space, into the
terminal window, then drag that folder in there from
the finder, then hit return.... viola!
If the folder you want is already open, you can drag the icon at the top of the Finder window. You don't have to go one level up.

What is a terminal window and how do I get to one?

I basically downloaded a Httpmail plug-in for Apple Mail and want to uninstall it. I have found how to do it but I don't what a terminal window is to do what I need to do. Could you tell me how to find one.

The Terminal window will give you access to the Unix command line so that, if you so desire, you can run commands directly from there.
B E C A R E F U L. With Administrator privileges, you can do harm if you are not sure what you are doing.
I take it from your first message that the unistall process for some software requires you to use the command line. Read the instructions carefully and type exactly what you are given: if possible, copy and paste into Terminal.
If you need to have Root privilieges (see what the instructions say), you would type sudo first, then a space before the command. If you uses sudo, you will be asked for an Admin password (and a small lecture will appear onscreen -- normal, do not worry).
If you have any more questions, do ask.

How to close a popup window for system events?

Hi,
I have a screen 110 which shows several input field in popup mode.
The Cancel button can close the screen.
But my question is how to close the popup window for the following system events?
1, Customer clicks the cross button in top-right corner
2, Customer clicks the system icon in top-left corner and then select either: "Close" or "Stop Session"
The PAI subroutine of the screen has not been triggered for the above system events.
Thanks for the coming help.
Best Regards,
David

Hi Siddharth,
I did check with another very experienced ABAP developer.
The solution was the same as what Arunima Rudra provided.
And I got a sample program which did work properly.
The headache is that the system events in my program still cannot be triggered even after I have all the same changes.
Anyway, I suggest you to try the solution as provided by Arunima Rudra.
It should work for 2 system events:
1, Customer clicks the cross button in top-right corner
2, Customer clicks the system icon in top-left corner and then select either: "Close"
For "Stop Session", it should not be handled by popup.
You can observe the same behavior in ALV sorting configuration popup.
Good luck!
Regards,
David

How to use string control as terminal window

Hello All
I am trying to create a terminal window in my VI and to do this i have a string control and a string indicator.
I want the user to be able to write a command in the terminal and when hitting enter the control should update, but not before! I would
like the user to be able to enter multiple commands without having to re-click the control with the mouse, so it has to stay in the
control window.
The output from this string control is input to a invoke node to an external motor controller, which replies with a string input to the string indicator.
Tried to do some event case, but not quite sure how I am going to detect only the enter command.
Any ideas how to preceed?
Thanks
Regards
Tommy
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yeah, in your event structure, look for an event of your string control called "key down"...on the left, there are several parameters coming up (char, vkey etc.) where you can use for example the char to look for char=13 (return).
look here: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361B-01/lvprop/control_key_down/
good luck

Does this work for you?

How to close browser window after flushing a file to the browser?

I have this simple JSP, which flushes a String to the browser as a file (message.txt). The JSP gets opened in a new window when the user clicks a link.
The problem is that after the JSP has run, the browser window won't close automatically. I've tried adding a small javascript to achieve this, but i doesn't seem to even get run.
How can I close the browser window after the JSP has run?
<%
     String someText = "bla bla bla";
     // Flush to browser
     response.setContentType("text/plain");
     response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
     try {
          ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
          os.write(someText.getBytes());
          os.flush();
          os.close();
     } catch (IOException e) {
          return;
     } catch (Exception e) {
          return;
%>
<script type="text/javascript">
     window.close();
</script>After the JSP has run, an empty html page with the following source can be seen:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

Try run this and you'll see that it runs fine with no exceptions:
<%
     String someText = "bla bla bla";
     response.setContentType("text/plain");
     response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
     try {
          ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
          os.write(someText.getBytes());
          os.flush();
          os.close();
     } catch (Exception e) {
          out.println("ERROR: " + e);
%>It looks like that after I've closed the outputStream I can't do any more processing in the JSP. Even if I remove the setContentType and setHeader methods it still behaves this way.
I'm starting to think that there's no way around this...??
