While editing an R Markdown file, I accidentally added the word 'teh' to the current dictionary when performing a spell check. Is there a way to manually edit the dictionary to undo this incorrect entry?
I am running RStudio version 1.1.423 on macOS Sierra (10.12.6).
I found the user dictionary. On macOS, you can edit the text file ~/.rstudio-desktop/monitored/lists/user_dictionary.
The link where the OP found the solution appears to have been taken down, so for Windows users the location is: %localappdata%\RStudio-Desktop\monitored\lists\user_dictionary

Hello all,
Can anyone tell me how to clear the 'Recent items' list in Preview application of Mac OS X through code? Is there a terminal command that can do this?
Or is there any way to click on 'Clear Menu' in 'Open Recent' of the 'File' menu in Preview?
Alternatively, does someone know where Preview stores this information and how do to remove it?
Check out this image to see what I mean.
Ok, so none of the described methods on the websites I could find actually succeeded in getting rid of all the 'recent document' lists in all of my apps.
I feel the most common sense approach would be (for OSX 10.12 / Sierra):
First go to system settings > general and choose "none" in the recent file dropdown menu (my OSX is in another language so the exact terms might be different, but you should be able to see what I mean). / This will get rid of most, but not all recent-items in different apps.
Get familiar with Apple's 'defaults' command in terminal. Now, hunt for any lists you might still want to get rid off, e.g. none of the options mentioned in the answers already listed here helped to get rid of the recent-items list in Finders "GO" menu. I played around with the defaults command and found that: "write com.apple.finder "FXRecentFolders" '({})' && killall Finder" does the trick for me. Playing around I found similar solutions for many of the other apps that where still able to maintain a list of recent items.
Create a shell script containing the commands you found during step 2.
Schedule the script to be run automatically on a preset interval or action (e.g. log out). AND/OR create an alias in your shell's profile (or directly apply the script as a function inside it) so you can call it with a single command from your terminal. (for instance: I have created an alias to it, so when I now type "killrecent" in terminal, it empties all the recent-items lists I've been able to find.
Hope this will be of some help to others. Good luck!
open Preview ->- go to File ->- Open Recent ->- Clear Menu
You may try the approach outlined here, which is to run
defaults delete com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList RecentDocuments
in the Terminal (manually or through your app). However I tried this and it didn't work for me (OSX 10.11), since the Preview defaults file doesn't contain this entry.
You can use
defaults write com.apple.Preview NSRecentDocumentsLimit 0
which will hide all recently used items, but as soon as you set that number to anything greater than 0, they will show up again.
I also checked the ScriptingBridge Interface for Preview, but couldn't find anything useful. So unfortunately it looks like this is not possible.
with 10.11, there are at
~/Library/Application\ Support/com.apple.sharedfilelist/com.apple.LSSharedFileList.ApplicationRecentDocuments/com.apple.preview.sfl
I am attempting to update the Windows registry to add an icon for my custom file extension, and I have thus far been unsuccessful. My current version is closest to this stackoverflow question. Unfortunately, my file's icon is still one of the generic built-in Windows icons (see screenshot below).
At this point my best guess is perhaps there is something wrong with my .ICO file. I have shared it here on Dropbox
Here is the full registry update I'm making with regedit. As you can see, I am also associating my file extension with a .bat file for execution. That works great. Also the Type displayed in Windows Explorer is PartQuest Archive which is also great (see above screenshot). Alas, no dice with the last entry for the icon.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip]
#="PartQuest Archive"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell\open\command]
#="\"C:\\MentorGraphics\\PartQuestTools\\SDD_HOME\\common\\win32\\scripts\\pqunzip.bat\" \"%1\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pqz]
#="pqunzip"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pqz\DefaultIcon]
#="\"C:\\MentorGraphics\\PartQuestTools\\SDD_HOME\\common\\win32\\config\\decrypted.ico\""
I have also attempted adding a ,1 to the end of the file name since the .ICO file appears it may have two icons embedded in it. This is did not make a difference.
For good measure, I have been rebooting after each change. I'm not certain if this is necessary.
Any tips from the Windows experts around here will certainly be appreciated!
So I did a little reverse-engineering to figure out the issue based on 7Zip's file associations. It turns out that the DefaultIcon key entry should be a child of the application, not the file name. So in my case I need it associated with pqunzip rather than .pqz:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\DefaultIcon]
#="\"C:\\MentorGraphics\\PartQuestTools\\SDD_HOME\\common\\win32\\config\\decrypted.ico\""
For maximal clarity, this is the entire contents of my .req file that works as expected:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip]
#="PartQuest Archive"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\shell\open\command]
#="\"C:\\MentorGraphics\\PartQuestTools\\SDD_HOME\\common\\win32\\scripts\\pqunzip.bat\" \"%1\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\pqunzip\DefaultIcon]
#="\"C:\\MentorGraphics\\PartQuestTools\\SDD_HOME\\common\\win32\\config\\decrypted.ico\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pqz]
#="pqunzip"
I am new to Linux and maybe the answer to my question is too simple but I did my research and found nothing out there.
The key "a" in my laptop is broken. So I need to remap it in another position. I opened the location /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ and tried to edit the file "us" which contains the mapping for the English keyboard but when I tried editing it in "vi" editor I got a "read only" message. I need to edit and save the changed file. How can I do this?
How can I map Open Recent, or "open last file" to a keyboard shortcut?
This is my pitiful attempt so far:
{ "keys": ["super+shift+r"], "command": "open_recent"}
I tried looking at the console (Ctrl-`) while using Open Recent but it doesn't display anything.
In general, how does one go about adding key bindings? And is there a more appropriate place that Stack Overflow for this question?
Thanks!
Key bindings should be added to the User key-binding preferences. Adding to the default settings will also work, but the settings will be overwritten when a new version of Sublime Text 2 is installed.
Your attempt matches the general structure of a Sublime Text key-binding, but "open_recent" isn't a valid command. From what I can find in the documentation, I think the Open Recent menu keeps track of the different file names then calls open on whichever file is selected, instead of calling an open_recent command.
If there isn't a way to get the name of the most recent file, you could probably write an extension that kept track of the most recent file and then opened it, but that probably be a fairly kludgy solution.
The command is reopen_last_file. So you should add something like this:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+r"], "command": "reopen_last_file" },
Little PS: I'm using ctrl+shift+t, so that the shortcut for reopening the last document is consistent across my browser, IDE and editor.
I suggest you try out a couple of packages:
https://github.com/spadgos/sublime-OpenRecentFiles
or:
https://github.com/paccator/GotoRecent
And the easiest way to install them is with this package control, package:
http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control/installation
That should give you what you want...
I use xcode 3.2.4 on snow leopard. Today when I tried to save a file on my project I get an error message saying: The document "nameOfFile.m" could not be saved. I tried reinstalling xcode but no luck. The file can be edited with other editors and I see the same behavior on all my projects as well as newly created projects. Any ideas?
Simply by rebooting the computer the issue was fixed.
We were having this problem in a lab environment where user files are mounted via NFS.
The client machines are running OS X 10.6.7 and the file server is running Debian Linux.
After much grief and reading /var/log/syslog on the client machine I discovered it was a subtle file locking / race condition issue with the file system. Evidently, when editing files in a "bundle" (e.g. as in an Xcode project), the OS is using some form of "safe writes" which involves writing transient data atomically to ~/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/ (which of course is on the NFS mounted system) -- there is a race here that requires proper file locking. We hope we have fixed the problem by changing the nfs_mount options
as described in Mounting NFS volumes in OS X
Not sure why but the temp files ended in a odd state. In "/private/var/folders" I simply removed all the folders and it cleared up the problem
cd /private/var/folders
sudo rm -fR *
Note: never do a "sudo rm" unless you really know what you are doing. It can cause irrecoverable damage
I restarted XCode (by a force-quit, not just closing it) and that fixed it for me.
Make sure you have you mouse focused on the code area and not the file in the file list.
Cleaning the project (Product > Clean), then force quitting Xcode (Command + Option + Escape, select Xcode, click Force Quit) solved the issue for me. I'm not sure if the clean was necessary, but that was what I did. Upon re-opening the project, I let Xcode index the project before doing anything, then did a Build, and all is well.
Force quiting Xcode for me worked. I would recommend the same.
Hey........... even i faced the same problem..... But got the answer......
steps:
reveal in folder the project.
select the file that is locked
select 'GEt Info'
deselect ie uncheck the label 'LOCKED' in the Info.
I just ran into the same problem, then I noticed I ran out of disk space. You can disable the warning that pops up when you run low on disk space (perhaps not a wise thing to do). I did that a few days ago and was puzzled for a moment when this message appeared. They could've just said "Disk full" or something instead of "cannot save". Anyway if anyone ever runs into this just free up some disk space.
You might be able to save in an external editor because its not also building your app which might use up the little remaining space. It might also be why it worked after rebooting (if OS X cleaned up some cached stuff on reboot) so it seems plausible.
Either that or your HDD might have just crashed.
tic....tic....tic.....
In my Case, the File which was saying document could not be saved was basically Shortcut/Allies of the file present at another place.
I don't know why it was not able to save if it was opened by shortcut/allies in xcode but by overwriting(Copy and Paste) the orignal files to that shortcut my problem was solved.

1.Right click on that file
2.Go to Show in Finder .
3.Click on get info .
4.Goto Sharing & Permission
Everyone,username,Fetching & selection ----You can choose appropriate read write option.
I have face this issue many times. I followed below steps to fixed this.
1. Select file->Show in Finder
2. Copy those file and past different destination.
3. Remove those file from xCode (to selecting show in finder)
4. Then again add those files from other destination to actual location
5. Clean code and run the code.
Another possible reason is that the file you are trying to modify is an alias (i.e. a soft link).
You will have to modify the source file directly in this case.
Thanks #Wayne Cochran,
When I use Xcode to save it, I rebooted the machine several times, and all failed.
So I changed to Visual Studio Code to edit and save. Then it's OK.
Just change the file editor
This can happen when you are working with a network hard drive (or are on a cloud) and not connected to the network (connection lost)
