I have compiled a list of my favourite terminal commands that I have found useful over the last year.

1 – defaults write “Apple Global Domain” AppleScrollBarVariant DoubleBoth

Puts double scroll arrows at both ends of scroll bar. Use Appearance pane in system preferences to reset.

2 – defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

Shows hidden files in the finder. Replace TRUE with FALSE to hide hidden files again
