Ask TUAW: Call for Questions
Attention TUAW readers! This week we'll be starting a a Questions and Answers help column as a weekly feature. But of course to do this well we need some good questions. We'll take questions from anyone, but we hope to be especially useful for all the switchers and other new Mac users out there. Please submit your question via the comments page (put Ask TUAW in the subject), or just by leaving a comment to this post. Each week we'll choose several questions of general interest to answer in the column. Although we will try to be as helpful as possible, we may not be able to answer all questions. And naturally we invite our other readers to pitch in with suggestions as well. So get to asking!

Hey TUAW and users!
How do I keep my MacbookPro from going to sleep when I close the screen? I want it to be nice and portable and less battery-hogging while still encoding videos in my bag.
Wake up dammit!

I am intrested in learning c/c++ and app development for macs. I purchased O'Reilly presses "C in a Nutshell" but found it a little dense/advanced. Any suggestions on a good place to start? Thanks.

I'll second the questions of #2 and #15 above.
2. I'd like to know something about the bar at the top (what do you call that, anyways?) The application name, which is in bold, next to the apple button can apparently be changed to the application icon (16 x 16 px). I've seen this in a few screenshots. I don't know if this is a setting or not, but how can I also do this?
15. In column view in the finder, is there a way to sort files by type or date etc. as in list view?
Thanks!
