How to use macos’ built-in “kill and yank” as an alternative cut and paste

Visi žinomi apie kirpimą ir įklijavimą iki dabar. Ar žinojote, kad jūsų “Mac” rūšiuoti turi antrą iškarpinę, vadinamą “žudyti ir sunaikinti”?

“Kill and yank” kilę iš “Emacs”, kuri yra “teksto redaktorių šeima, kurioms būdingas jų išplėtimo galimybės”. Jei niekada girdėjote apie “Emacs”, tai gerai – tai dažniausiai randama “Unix” ir “Linux” sistemose. “Emacs” turi daugiau nei 2000 integruotų komandų, iš kurių abu minėti žudo ir nukirsta du.

Žudymas yra panašus į pjovimą, o jankavimas yra kaip įklijavimas . su šiek tiek (naudingų skirtumų).

Norėdami tai išbandyti, atidarykite “TextEdit” iš aplanko “Applications” arba naudodami “Spotlight”. Tada įkelkite sukurtą dokumentą arba tiesiog sukurkite naują tekstą.

Komanda kill yra Control + K, o yank komanda yra Control + Y. Daugeliu atvejų jie dirba kaip iškirpti ir įklijuoti. Galite pasirinkti bet kokį teksto dokumento dalį ir jį nužudyti (iškirpti), o tada nukopijuoti (įklijuoti) į dokumentą arba kažkur kitur.

Galite naudoti tai kaip antrą iškarpinę (taigi galite laikyti dvi eilutes tekstas tuo pačiu metu), bet čia yra kita kieta dalis: jums nebūtinai teksto pasirinkti tekstą, kad būtų galima naudoti “žudyti” ir “šokti”.

Pvz., šiame pavyzdyje mes įvedėme greitą tekstą. Paprastai įterpdami žymeklį “žodžio” pabaigoje ir naudojant komandą “nužudyti”, mes iškirskime viską iš ten iki teksto pabaigos, o tada grąžinsime jį atgal.

Darbai taip pat tinka, jei būtumėte įterpti žymeklį ilgoje pastraipoje ar sakinyje. Užuot pasirinkę visą dalyką, kad galėtumėte jį iškirpti, galite tiesiog įterpti žymeklį iš pradžių ir jį nužudyti, o jo pasirinkimas nereikalingas.

Tai veiks įvairios programos, pvz., “Pastabos”, “Priminimai” ir “Paštas”, taigi jūs neapsiribojote tiesiog naudodami jį TextEdit. Mes sužinojome, kad ji veikia “Chrome”, bet ne “Microsoft Office” programose – dar keistai tai atrodo, kad “Slack” dirba, tačiau “Yank” to nedaro. Taigi, jūsų rida gali skirtis, atsižvelgiant į tai, kokios programos gali pasinaudoti, bet tai gali būti galingas papildymas jūsų kasdieniniam įrankių rinkiniui.

Tiesiog nepamirškite, kad iškirpti ir įklijuoti inicijuojami su komandų raktą, o žudymas ir šaudymas atliekami naudojant “Control” .

Ar jums patinka “Mail”, numatytasis el. Pašto klientas “macOS”, idėja , bet jūs negalite iš tikrųjų jį naudoti kiek jums patinka “Gmail” spartieji klavišai? Aš taip pat. Aš naudoju “Mac” jau daugelį metų, tačiau niekada nesuteikiau galimybės gauti numatytąją el. Pašto programą, nors ji yra lengva, greita ir puikiai integruojama į operacinę sistemą.

“Amazon Echo” gali daug ką nuveikti, taip pat pabudinkite jus su patogiais signalais ir įsitikinkite, kad lazanja neuždega orkaitė su lengvai nustatomais laikmačiais. Skaitykite taip, kaip parodysime, kaip kurti ir valdyti abu. Tvarkyklių nustatymas ir valdymas Norėdami nustatyti laikmatį, galite naudoti šias balso komandas: “Alexa”, nustatykite laikmatis [laikas , kaip 20 minučių].

Вже зараз всі знають про обрізання і склеювання. Але чи знаєте ви, що ваш Mac має другий буфер обміну, відомий як kill і yank?

Kill and yank походить від Emacs, який є «сімейством текстових редакторів, які характеризуються розширюваністю». Якщо ви ніколи не чули про Emacs, то це нормально – це зазвичай можна знайти в системах Unix і Linux. Кажуть, що Emacs має більше 2000 вбудованих команд, з яких вищезгадані “убиваємо” і “дергають” є двома з них.

Вбивство схоже на різання, а витягування – це як вставлення… з деякими незначними (корисними відмінностями).

Щоб спробувати його, відкрийте TextEdit з папки «Програми» або за допомогою Spotlight. Потім завантажте створений документ або просто створіть новий текст.

Командою kill є Control + K, а команда yank – Control + Y. Здебільшого вони працюють так само, як вирізати і вставляти. Ви можете вибрати будь-яку частину текстового документа і вбити його (вирізати), а потім повернути його (вставити) назад у документ або в інше місце.

Ви можете використовувати це як другий буфер обміну (щоб ви могли зберігати дві послідовності тексту одночасно), але ось інша цікава частина: вам не обов’язково вибирати текст для використання kill і yank.

Наприклад, у наступному прикладі ми набрали якийсь швидкий текст. Просто вставивши курсор в кінець слова і використовуючи команду kill, ми вирізаємо все звідти до кінця рядка тексту, а потім витягуємо його назад.

Робота так само добре, якби ви вставили курсор на початку довгого абзацу або пропозиції. Замість вибору всієї речі, щоб можна було її вирізати, ви можете просто вставити курсор на початку і вбити його, не потрібно вибору.

Це буде працювати в різних програмах, таких як Notes, Reminders і Mail, так що ви не обмежуєтеся лише його використанням на TextEdit. Ми виявили, що він працює в Chrome, але не в програмах Microsoft Office – навіть більш дивно, що kill в Slack працює, але Yank не робить. Таким чином, ваш пробіг може змінюватися з точки зору того, які програми можуть скористатися перевагами, але це може бути потужним доповненням до вашого щоденного інструментарію.

Просто пам’ятайте, вирізати та вставляти ініціюються клавішею Command, тоді як kill та yank виконуються за допомогою Control.

Alle ved at klippe og indsætte nu. Men vidste du, at din Mac slags har et andet udklipsholder kendt som kill and yank?

Kill og yank stammer fra Emacs, som er en “familie af tekstredaktører, der er karakteriseret ved deres udvidelighed.” Hvis du aldrig har Hørt om Emacs, det er okay-det findes normalt på Unix og Linux-systemer. Emacs siges at have over 2000 indbyggede kommandoer, hvoraf ovennævnte kill og yank er to af dem.

Dræbling svarer til at skære, og yanking er som at klistre . med nogle små (nyttige forskelle).

For at prøve det, skal du åbne TextEdit fra mappen Applications eller ved hjælp af Spotlight. Upload derefter et dokument, du har oprettet, eller simpelthen opret ny tekst.

Kill kommandoen er Control + K, og kommandoen yank er Control + Y. For det meste fungerer de ligesom klippe og pasta. Du kan vælge en del af et tekstdokument og dræbe det (klippe) og derefter pakke det ind igen i dit dokument eller et andet sted.

Du kan bruge dette som et andet udklipsholder (så du kan gemme to snor af tekst ad gangen), men her er den anden seje del: Du behøver ikke nødvendigvis at vælge tekst for at bruge kill og yank.

F.eks. har vi skrevet nogle hurtige tekst i det følgende eksempel. Ved simpelthen at indsætte markøren i slutningen af ​​”word” og ved hjælp af kommandoen Dræb, skærer vi alt derfra til slutningen af ​​tekstlinjen, og derefter returnerer det.

Det fungerer lige så godt, hvis du skulle indsæt markøren i begyndelsen af ​​et langt stykke eller en sætning. I stedet for at vælge det hele, så du kan klippe det, kan du blot indsætte markøren i begyndelsen og dræbe den, ingen valg kræves.

Dette vil fungere på tværs af en række applikationer som Notes, Påmindelser og Mail, så du er ikke begrænset til at bruge det på TextEdit. Vi har fundet ud af, at det virker i Chrome, men ikke Microsoft Office-apps – endnu mere mærkeligt, dræb synes at fungere i Slack, men Yank gør det ikke. Så din kilometertal kan variere i forhold til hvilke apps kan udnytte, men det kan være en kraftfuld tilføjelse til din daglige værktøjskasse.

Husk kun, at klippe og indsætte er initieret med kommandotasten, mens kill og yank er gjort med Control .

Abstract

Context: Mitotane is highly effective in the long-term management of Cushing’s syndrome but has a slow onset of action. Mitotane combined with fast-acting steroidogenesis inhibitors might avoid the need for emergency bilateral adrenalectomy in patients with severe hypercortisolism.

Objective: Our objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with mitotane, metyrapone, and ketoconazole in severe ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome.

Patients, design, and setting: Eleven patients with severe Cushing’s syndrome participated in this follow-up study in a tertiary referral hospital.

Interventions: High-dose therapy combining mitotane (3.0-5.0 g/24 h), metyrapone (3.0-4.5 g/24 h), and ketoconazole (400-1200 mg/24 h) was initiated concomitantly. Twenty-four-hour urinary free cortisol (UFC) excretion (normal values 10-65 μg/24 h) was monitored.

Results: Data are reported as medians (range). All 11 patients experienced a marked clinical improvement. UFC excretion fell rapidly from 2737 μg/24 h (range 853-22,605) at baseline to 50 μg/24 h (range 18-298) (P = 0.001) within 24-48 h of treatment initiation and remained low to normal on the combination therapy. In seven patients, metyrapone and ketoconazole were discontinued after 3.5 months (range 3.0-6.0) of combination therapy, and UFC excretion remained controlled by mitotane monotherapy (UFC 17 μg/24 h, range 5-85; P = 0.016). Five patients became able to undergo etiological surgery and are presently in remission. Four of them recovered normal adrenal function after mitotane discontinuation. Adverse effects were tolerable, consisting mainly of gastrointestinal discomfort and a significant rise in total cholesterol and γ-glutamyl transferase levels (P = 0.012 and P = 0.002, respectively).

Conclusions: When surgical treatment for severe ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome is not feasible, combination therapy with mitotane, metyrapone, and ketoconazole is an effective alternative to bilateral adrenalectomy, a procedure associated with significant morbidity and permanent hypoadrenalism.

One of the most significant new features of macOS Catalina is Sidecar. The feature lets you use your iPad as a second display for Mac. For years, Duet Display has offered a similar paid product for many years. As Sidecar and macOS Catalina launches, here’s a look at the critical differences between both tools.

What is Sidecar?

First introduced at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June as part of Apple’s macOS Catalina unveiling, Sidecar works wirelessly and wired between a macOS Catalina-supported device and tablet with iPadOS 13 installed. The Sidecar functionality is currently not available on iOS 13 or any iPhone.

Main purposes

Out of the box, Sidecar provides many different use cases. The first of these is as a second Mac display, which allows you to extend the computer’s real estate or act as a mirror. Further, you can place one app on each screen, or put your main canvas on one display and your tools and palettes on the other.

Sidebar’s second big highlight is that it brings Apple Pencil quasi-support to Mac for the first time. It does so by letting you use the input device on your tablet to control Mac apps on your connected computer. Desktop apps like Adobe Illustrator, Affinity Designer and Photo, CorelDRAW, Sketch, and many more, now support this with others expected to go online in the coming months.

Source: Apple

There’s also convenient sidebar and Touch Bar controls available that allow you to interact with multi-touch gestures to pinch, swipe, and zoom. Newly created iPadOS text editing gestures are also supported with Sidecar, including copy, cut, paste, and more.

Supported devices

Sidecar requires Macs with Skylake processors and later, as well as iPad models that support Apple Pencil.

Macs

• MacBook introduced in 2016 or later
• MacBook Air introduced in 2018 or later
• MacBook Pro introduced in 2016 or later
• Mac mini introduced in 2018 or later
• iMac introduced in late 2015 or later
• iMac Pro introduced in 2017 or later
• Mac Pro introduced in 2019

iPads

• 12.9-inch iPad Pro
• 11-inch iPad Pro
• 10.5-inch iPad Pro
• 9.7-inch iPad Pro
• iPad (6th generation or later)
• iPad mini (5th generation)
• iPad Air (3rd generation)

Two more things

Continuity Sketch and Markup are two Sidebar-related features that work on any Mac that supports macOS Catalina, plus any tablet with iPadOS 13 and iPhones with iOS 13.

Continuity Sketch lets you create on your mobile device a sketch that easily inserts into any document on your Mac. With Continuity Markup, you can sign documents, correct papers, or circle important details in images using either your Apple Pencil on iPad or finger on iPhone.

Sidecar is free to use, assuming your devices are supported.

• Free, no subscription required
• No app required
• Easy setup for casual users

• Limited gestures
• Won’t work on iPhone or older devices

What is Duet Display?

Created by former Apple engineers, Duet Display lets you turn your mobile device into a second display for Mac or PC. Until the introduction of Sidecar, Duet Display only supported Apple mobile devices. That support now extends to Android devices. Duet Display also works on Chromebooks.

What Duet Display offers varies greatly according to your subscription level, for which there are three. To get started, you must first buy the Duet Display app for iOS or iPadOS. You can install the $10 app across multiple Apple mobile devices; the Mac version is free to download from the Duet Display website. Android users must download a Duets Display app from Google Play separately.

Source: Duet Display

A free Duet subscription lets you use your iPad as a second screen for your Mac or PC. It includes touch screen capabilities, including iPad Keyboard support. However, your devices must be wired to work.

For $20 per year, you can purchase a Duet Air subscription, which adds wireless support, plus everything in the free version. You also gain a remote desktop connection that’s accessible from anywhere as long as you have an internet connection.

Available for $30 per year, Duet Pro has been designed for digital artists and includes features that Sidecar does not. These include full gesture support, more resolution options, remote desktop support, customizable pressure curves, customizable performance (battery efficiency vs. performance), predictive line lead (which predicts the characteristics of lines, then rendering them without going to the Mac), shortcuts such as undo/redo, and more.

Both Duet Air and Duet Pro come with a one week trial.

Adobe Illustrator used to be the gold standard for graphic design for years, but due to an increasingly expensive subscription model, many users are moving away from it. Here’s our list of our favorite vector-based design software.

It’s no surprise that many people have been migrating away from Adobe products over the last several years. Adobe has moved to a subscription model that averages $56-$80 a month if a user needs to use more than one Adobe product at a time, something likely untenable for the average hobbyist. With a flood of pay once, use forever software hitting the market, users have no short supply of programs to choose from, especially when looking to replace Illustrator.

Affinity Designer (iOS – $20, currently on sale for $16, macOS – $50, currently on sale for $40)

Affinity Designer is far and away the most polished and feature-packed app on this list, especially considering you can get it as a mobile app as well. Sure, the desktop Mac and PC apps are good, but the iPad app is an extremely powerful program that gives users the chance to design on the go.

Designer functions almost exactly like Illustrator, making it the best one-to-one swap on our list. Our only major critique of Affinity Designer is that, as of the current version, there is still no feature that is analogous to Illustrator’s image trace, which we find to be one of the most useful features of the program.

If you are familiar with Illustrator, you’ll be able to navigate Designer, though you’ll have to work through a certain amount of muscle memory that won’t transfer over directly. Artists new to vector design may find Affinity a little daunting due to the rather dense UI.

If you are new to vector design programs or if you’re working with a decade or two of Adobe muscle memory, you may want to pick up the Affinity Designer workbook. We have a copy and find it to be extremely helpful in teaching the basics of both Designer as well as vector design.

As of June 5th, the desktop version of Affinity Designer has been revamped to work even better with macOS. The iOS version has also seen some performance and UI updates as well.

Graphic (iOS – $9, macOS – $30)

Graphic is one of the more beginner-friendly vector programs we’ve run across. Its UI is hands down the easiest to navigate out of our list, and thus our pick for anyone who is new to vector graphic design.

There are also plenty of user guides for Graphic, which help users both understand the program, as well as vector design itself.

Graphic has made extra accommodations for those who are using the program for technical drawings. One step dimensional and arrow-head lines are a breeze, allowing designers to quickly mark up their designs for technical projects.

The iOS version of Graphic is also highly optimized for the Apple Pencil, and users can create dynamic brushes to meet their specific illustration needs. It also supports Smart Keyboard shortcuts, which instantly makes the program feel quite a bit more like a full desktop program.

Graphic also allows users to import and export PSD, PDF, and SVG files, create their own vector-based brushes, and supports unlimited layers.

Amadine (macOS – $20)

Amadine falls somewhere between Affinity Designer and Graphic in complexity, and may very well be the best for intermediate users.

The UI is quite a bit more pared down from Affinity Designer or Illustrator. We found it easy to pick up the program without much effort. Amadine has also created a series of tutorials for users new to the program.

Most of the mainstay tools you’ll find in Illustrator you’ll also find in Amadine, including the ability to put text to paths, layer effects, and stroke pressure sensitivity for those using external graphics tablets. Amadine also allows users to import and export work as JPEG, TIFF, PNG, EPS or PDF file formats.

Amadine does not currently have an iOS app, but says that one is in development.

Inkscape (macOS – free)

Inkscape is a free, open-source GNU-based vector program, making it an attractive option for those who are just starting with vector image creation. It is a fairly straightforward take on Illustrator, with most, if not all of the same features available.

If you are familiar with Illustrator’s UI, Inkscape can be hard to get used to. There are a plethora of Inkscape tutorials available, both at Inkscape’s website and the internet at large. We highly suggest new users utilize them.

Fortunately, unlike most other Illustrator dupes, Inkscape does have an image trace feature called “Trace Bitmap,” which we see as indispensable in a vector program.

If you want it to work with macOS, there is a bit of a caveat. Inkscape will not work out of the box, and must be installed via MacPorts, either as an X11 build or a native Quartz build. The developers of Inkscape highly recommend that any users stick with the X11 build for stability’s sake.

I’ve used Graphic since it was iDraw. A very easy to use program. Great for diagrams and quick drawings.

For the last year I’ve been using Affinity Designer. It is quite powerful and even after a year I’ve only scratched the surface of what it can do. Be aware, the learning curve is near vertical at first. But don’t let that dissuade you, it’s a fantastic program with both vector graphic and bitmap tools. You can even mix them in the same drawing.

redhotfuzz

The Affinity apps are absolutely stellar. Definitive must-haves for any Mac/iOS user. I wake up at night in a cold sweat thinking about Adobe buying them out at a price they can’t refuse and killing the apps to keep the Creative Cloud dictatorship in place. I can only hope there is some government agency out there that would stop this from happening.

i do wish Affinity would come out with a Lightroom/Aperture substitute.

possiblerobot

Affinity Designer and Photo are not just competitive; they’re better in nearly every way. The only thing I miss from Illustrator is the blend/replicate feature (not to be confused with blending modes, for which Affinity has incredible support). But, that feature is on their roadmap. With Affinity Publisher coming out, the great triumvirate will be complete. If Affinity (Serif), or a similarly-minded company, were to produce a true After Effects competitor, I feel that the Adobe hegemony could be broken, and the industry would return to robust competition and advancement.

rezwits

Thank you for this article, with the impending DOOM that is Catalina, and ARMBooks, or just ArmMacs might have to find some kind of alternative, hopefully Adobe will go app store someday. plus I really want to format my drive Case Sensitve 🙁

Could you try to use a build-in Mac OS second way of cut-paste, the “Kill and Yank” as an Alternative of Cut & Paste, and see if works for your case?

To do that, first you select the text you want, press control + K (to kill/cut), then you can press control + Y (Yank/paste) where you want to paste it. Please not that the key is the Control key and not the Command key.

This Kill and Yank” commands is independet of Mac OS clipboard and can be used simultaneusly with it, for example if you want to take text and paste it from 2 different areas at the same time and not go front and back.

If this work for you, then it seems to have some issue with the clipboard. We will see how to continue after that.

thanks for that hint and workaround. But if a text could not be cut, this won`t work. But i`ll give it a try.

Yes if the text can not be cut, then it will not work, but I suggested this test, to clarify if the issue begins from your clipboard.

Also, you could try to see the results by downloading another clipboard manager from the web.

Gibt es hierfür eine Lösung?
Ich habe das Problem leider auch immer wieder und das ist sehr ärgerlich, besonders wenn man Sitzungen mit aufzeichnet und die Aufzeichnungen dann weg sind! oder liegen die trotzdem noch irgendwo in einem Temp Ordner?
