Print Screen on a Mac
Article on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) about how to take screen captures on a Mac. Not really specific to web development, but it's still the sort of thing I'm bound to forget and need to look up again.
In short:
- Command+Alt+Shift+3 = copy entire screen to the clipboard.
- Command+Alt+Shift+4 = allows you to drag a rectangle and copy it to the clipboard.
- Command+Alt+Shift+4 then Spacebar = allows you to point to a window and have it copied to the clipboard.
- Command+Shift+3 = save entire screen to a new PDF file on the desktop.
- Command+Shift+4 = allows you to drag a rectangle and capture it to a new PDF file on the desktop.
- Command+Shift+4 then Spacebar = allows you to point to a window and have it saved as a new PDF file on the desktop.

BlogThis - making it work with Firefox 2.0+
This post explains how to get older extensions working with newer versions of Firefox. You need to scroll right down to this comment to get the full details.
If you're running WinXP then you don't need WinZip - just rename the .xpi file to .zip, make the changes, then rename it back to .xpi. Probably worth keeping a copy of the original in case anything goes amiss.
If you've already tried to install this extension / addon then you will also need to modify "\extensions\Extensions.rdf". Edit the following section:
... such that the values for minVersion and maxVersion match those in the "install.rdf" file within the .xpi file / package.
Once you're done, place the .xpi file into "\extensions" and restart Firefox. It should pick up the new extension and give you the opportunity to install it.
