is included too! :)
Hopefully they fixed the mail.app program. If you have only 1 account, and it's imap, you won't see folders on the account. You have to add another account, even a dummy one that has no mail, to see folders of the first imap account. Stupid mail.app proggie.. had me using that stupid enterage program.

It took me a minute to find the button that was going to give me a context menu. Sigh. I always thought that it was just an old joke/troll but seriously, why?
Because the right-click context menu is a windows-ism, and as such, people who have never used windows don't care. In fact, if you gave them another button they wouldn't use it, much like how windows users don't care they are missing the ever-so-useful middle button.
People who do care plug any old multi-button USB mouse into their mac and forget about it.
Voila, you can search invisible files. All this update does is set the default search to visible files only, as it should be.

Well I don't know of which support exactly you are speaking of, but I've been running 2 HFS+ partitions and 1 UFS partition on my iMac (with a single 40GB disk) since 10.0.3 (client) and continue to do so until now (10.2.2).
And in case you forgot to setup the FS types correctly when partitioning, here's the hint how to do it afterwards. You cannot normaly just select "Erase disk" and put a different FS type on it. It will offer only the same type as the partition already has. BUT if you reboot with an OS X install CD and launch Disk Utility, you will be able to change the format of the partition without touching the rest of the disk.
What to do, what to do? /me strokes beard. Hey! How about using "A HARDWARE RAID!"
Why waste your CPU cycles calculating stuff when you can have a dedicated processor taking care of your storage issues?
Call your nearby raid vendor and get a box in. It speaks SCSI, it gives you lots of bonuses. Me? For high performance RAID at a decent price (too much for hobbyists and home users, don't waste your time), try these guys. Just a personal favorite, I'm not part of their company, just a customer.
Why hardware RAID? When your MoBo/CPU/Disk dies and you can't get that software RAID reconfigured, you unplug the hardware RAID, plug it into a new machine and just go.
When you want real speed, those baydel guys have a screaming, mirrored RAM cache so you get to write at 160MB/s.
Jeez, you put all that money into your server and network connections and want to cheap out by using slow IDE disks and your CPU to do all the work?
HFS+? Yeah, I still have it for my Mac Classic II on an 80MB drive.
THanks, I'll use FFS with softupdates or ReiserFS (or XFS mmmmmm) on my real volumes.

Go to disk utility and repair disk permissions. I notice everytime I run this the man pages permissions are screwed from various application installs. I dunno if that's the prob you are having but it's worth a try.
for the huge disk servers it means when you power up after a crash you dont have to do a full file system check which could take hours on say a 400GB disk.
what is the cost? a very small amount of disk space (about 8 Megs) and about a 15% reduction in write-to-disk performance. There is no penalty for read performance.
Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
That's probably been broken for awhile but you didn't notice it. It's a common symptom if you haven't updated Fink for Jaguar. Go follow the update instructions.

I'm not a native speaker of Japanese or Chinese, but I'm a little educated in both. Hiragana and katakana are different alphabets with different purposes. The katakana character for the syllable "ka" is not equivalent to the hiragana character for the syllable "ka." There's no circumstance under which you'd want corresponding hiragana and katakana characters to be considered equal.
As far as Chinese goes, traditional Chinese characters are used in Taiwan, while simplified Chinese characters are used in mainland China. Again, they're not equivalent. So you wouldn't need or want to map between them.
The uppercase-lowercase thing is pretty much unique to Latin and Latin-derived alphabets. Some languages have contextual forms-- for example, an initial character in Arabic looks different from the same character in medial or final position in the word-- but that's a rendering issue, not an encoding issue.
I actually think it would be quite straightforward to design a Unicode-based system that's case-insensitive with respect to alphabets that have distinct cases. More work than doing so for ASCII, of course, but not insurmountably more.
