Hi! I was trying to follow the premiere league game Everton-Liverpool. But the street is just a way stream and safari can not seem to be able to show it. VoiceOver is crap on the bbc site. Normally I can use the iPhone or Ipad for such tasks as the site seems to work better on iOS but no go there

Hello,    Latest Sequoia on a Mac mini M4. When I scroll up on System Settings in the dock, to browse the list, on Date & Time for example, I hear "ampersand" instead of "and".    The character is actually an ampersand but I should hear Voiceover pronounce it as "and". Are you lost? If I open

I'll certainly take another look at Brew, though a few years back it was definitely missing packages I wanted. I mostly run server services and I think MacPorts will probably always have the edge in that regard because it's much more prickly about getting system users/groups/permissions right on

The "tab2space" utility that's already part of macOS just so happens to include a feature for line-ending conversion. Check it out! And, yes, using a scripting language to hack something up would work too. Although bare in mind that Apple wants to drop all scripting languages (perl, python, Tcl

I expect there is both a perl and a python module that can convert linen line endings. There certainly was a EMACS function to do this.. > On Feb 12, 2025, at 11:47 AM, Doug Lee wrote: > > Your "must recompile everything" complaint against MacPorts is what, years > ago, made me switch to Ho

Your "must recompile everything" complaint against MacPorts is what, years ago, made me switch to Homebrew. Both seem to have a lot of packages, though not everything is duplicated I'm sure. Oddly, a "flip" command I used for a long time for switching files between LF and CRLF conventions, is no

   Of course its Apple's fault. Shaking head. For me Voiceover was fine. The only issue is the function keys on the Logitech keyboard. The magic trackpad has that covered however. From E.T.'s Keyboard... Why do we bake cookies and cook bacon? My e-Mail: ancient.ali...@icloud.com On 2/12/2025

There were quite a few changes from Ventura to Sequoia regarding VoiceOver, specially the way it handles TTS parameters and speech rate. So immediately after upgrading my speech slowed to an unbearable crawl with Eloquence, and I had to fiddle with it to get it right. Then for the command line

Apple Now Supports Migrating Purchases Between Accounts

Not supported in the UK, EU, or India. Caveats apply. However, if you have a primarily purchases-only account, you can now transfer its purchases to a primary account, so that iCloud and purchases can live, as they should, under one roof. See Apple's KB article on this for details. https://suppo
