I can’t have the second step work – no extra buttons.
OS X : 10.5.6
Screen sharing : 1.0.1 (3500200)
Is it possible this has been shut off?

I got the first command to work and can see all of the computers I have available to me.

The second long command wouldn’t do anything so I looked and sure enough, I have version 1.0.1.

would these features be available with iChat screen sharing as well?

NOTE!!!!

Well, if you have updated Leopard, then you must have Screen Sharing v1.0.1 , and this code wont work.
You can replace v1.0.1 with the v1.0 from you Leopard Install DVD, with Pacifist (google it), a simple app that extracts files from pkg archives (no need to buy it, just use it unregistered).
That worked for me, and was the only way to have the extra options.

i’ve tried typing (and copying then pasting after removing the line breaks) in one line in the terminal but i still get the same -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(’ error that Aranittara got

This doesn’t work any more. I’ve been playing with it for over an hour. The identifiers are still in the Strings output, but only the Clipboard and Scale options work. In what version of Leopard did you do this? I’m running 10.5.5

Or, if you can tell me how to make it work, that would be fantastic!

hello, I like your tweak.

Before using your trick I used to go through a finder window, choosing the computer I want to connect to in the shared toolbar then click on the screen sharing button.

I’d like to be able to connect only to my mac mini using one and only button, or one quicksilver command.. do you think it’s possible to make screensharing connect to a specific computer directly ? (i mean skipping the first menu of the computer choices)

Hey guys, does anyone here know how to delete the “my computers” in the new list because I have computers that I have changed the name and changed the network so I need to know how to delete the computers.
Urgently need a response!
