Snow Leopard Fixes: Terminal shell workaround

Stated a http://clarksshoess.us/ spokesman for the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, a government organization currently headed by Labour Party appointees, “The scale of unlawful file-sharing poses a real threat to the long-term sustainability of our creative industries. While surveys asking people about unlawful behaviour should be treated with caution, it’s encouraging that the

If you want a really good shell configuration, you should be considering using ZSH with oh-my-zsh (http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh), a theme handler for zsh that's really sweet and beautifully designed.
To use it, it's not really difficult, you can run an automatic script to install it.
After that, you can custom it in your .zshrc.
Really really wonderful
wget http://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh -O - | sh
keep free to fork/improve it on github

What could you possibly have in your cshrc that is so hard to port to a bashrc and enjoy the various benefits of a superior and standard shell?

You should change it in System Preferences->Accounts

1) Open that preference pane
2) Authenticate, if necessary
3) Right-click on your username, and select "Advanced Options..."
4) Select "/bin/tcsh" from the Login Shell dropdown box.

Terminal should now open with that shell by default.

The terminal supplied with the Mac is like the old Finder... one of the worst apps around.

iTerm (Free and OpenSource) is by far more feature filled and an all-around high quality app.

As a UNIX admin, I need a terminal that will do everything I need it to do in my work world, and iTerm fits that bill just fine.

Give it a try. It'll make Terminal look silly like Pathfinder makes the Finder look silly.

just run:
chsh -s (shell path)

I use fish shell so I just typed:
chsh -s /opt/local/bin/fish

Yes I have to both. Same thing. I am completely baffled as to what is going on here.

Mike-

Yeah, done all that and indeed, I get the right DNS response. Download speeds are not a problem BTW. I will also notice when multiple tabs are open that a background tab or 2 will display the "loading" spinner continually. I go to that tabbed page and the load spinner stops but, usually another background tab will start to do it. I see one now spinning and spinning. It's been maddening I tell you. FF is useless now. Camino has similar problems and Safari has become a major annoyance. I just got off the phone with tech support at Time Warner and everything "appears" fine.

All I know is that since I went with Snow Leopard, my web browsing has slowed to a crawl and become a royal pain.

This might be a tad OT but, I have 3 macs and with all of them Safari is giving me fits. There's an Apple discussion on it with a DNS setting in Network>System Pref but, that did nothing. I have tried everything. The problem? Pages loading and loading and loading. I would say with at least 80% of pages, I have to reload several times. I click on a link and the page never loads. Hit refresh a couple of times, sometimes more, and eventually it works. I've put 2 posts on the Apple board and they delete them! Weird.

I might add that this is happening to the 3 macs in our house. One of them a brand new 13" MBP. All with fresh, clean installs of SL.

I am at my wits end. By hi speed wireless has essentially been cut in half due to Safari's "problem". I've tried Camino too and it seems to happen with it too. Firefox? Forget it, it doesn't rememeber any sign in info and I have to sign in to each site (like My Yahoo) over and over again.

I'd appreciate any help. Been an avid TUAW reader since the beginning and haven't seen this issue addressed. I am hearing of a lot of similar problems like mine.

Dinosaur? please. Bourne is older. You are a trendy newcomer.
