mondays top 5 - hidden preferences

After upgrading to a new Macbook last week, I had to go on a hunt to find several hidden preferences that I had grown to rely on. I wanted to document these settings for future usage and thought I would share them as well.

You’ve probably seen these all before, but it’s nice to have them all in one place.

1 - Copy email addresses in Mail without all the extra junk

2 - Enable the list view option for Stacks in Snow Leopard

3 - Enable the option to view the full path of an item in the Finder

4 - Force Safari to open external links in a new tab rather than a new window

5 - Enable the Xray folders view in QuickLook

You can view or copy/paste from the full list here.
