Little known things in Leopard

by Kristian Freeman

So, I’ve seen that there are many hidden features in Leopard. Some useful, like the tabbed interface in Terminal, and some just funny, like the standard BSOD icon for networked Windows machines. The truth is though, I can’t pour through all of Leopard for all of these features. Has anyone discovered anything they think is useful or worth sharing? I’ll start a list once people start submitting what they’ve found.
