mobile and gis dev notes

I’ve found this tool which could display my Symbian phone in my Mac using WLAN. It supports BT, WLAN, and USB. So far, WLAN works for me so I sticked with it.

1. Download the software from http://www.digia.com/

2. Install the sis to your Nokia phone. Mine is an E61 so I paired it using BT on my mac.

3. Once installed, fill up the options on your phone… then try to ‘CONNECT’

Connection: TCP/IP
Access Point: Ofc (or Define an access point)
TCP/IP Host: 192.168.1.150 (IP address of my mac)

Fig 1 Trial mode lets you use it for the next two minutes with a big ‘TRIAL’ display on screen.

1. http://chmox.sourceforge.net/ – Let me view CHM files in OSX.

2. iTerm Bookmarks

Example:
1. Pressing [CTRL] + [COMMAND] + [R] goes to “/opt/ruby” directory

2. Pressing [CTRL] + [COMMAND] + [s], opens up an SSH terminal by specifying the PORT and IP.

1. Thanks to Chester for this one…

2. You can drag an image from a browser right to your desktop. This is faster than doing [Command] + [SHIFT] + F4 then cropping the picture out of the webpage..

1. Replace your current terminal with iTerm.
