[QUOTE="Erom, post: 798155, member: 85126"] Hi all- Quick question - I turned up an interesting tidbit (that changing the values of com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs can force safari to use one window instead of opening new windows constantly) and I'm trying to write a little script to toggle that sucker on and off. As I was working, I discovered I don't really know how to work with com.apple.foo stuff - specifically, I'd like to be able to see and set the value of a parameter from bash - how would I do that? I know this isn't strictly necessary to write the script, it's just something I'd like to know. A second question would also be, how do I list the contents of these files - I'd love to see what other hidden configuration options there are lurking in my machine! Thanks, Erom [/QUOTE]
