Coolest Mac hac of the week

So I found this over the weekend and found it too cool to keep to myself. Found on 9to5mac, and originally posted by Macworld, this little hack makes the screen sharing function in Leopard 10 times more useful.

First go into System>Library>CoreServices>Screen Sharing and put it someplace easily accessible, say the dock or Applications folder.

Next type this into terminal, no need to Sudo:

defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing ShowBonjourBrowser_Debug 1

Now open Screen Sharing again and make sure the Bonjour list is available.

Next type this command in terminal, all one line:

defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing \

'NSToolbar Configuration ControlToolbar' -dict-add 'TB Item Identifiers' \

'(Scale,Control,Share,Curtain,Capture,FullScreen,

GetClipboard,SendClipboard,Quality)'

Now you have a fully functional Screen Sharing program very comparable to Apple Remote Desktop, confirming this bloggers suspicion that Screen Sharing is using ARD's code.
