      Hmm. Sorry about that - no way to get around it. Cmd-Opt-Click was the easiest, least-used key combination when I did a survey among users, so I appropriated it for the Quay app popup.
      But. For the Finder, specifically, Cmd-Opt-Clicking on the desktop itself seems to do what you want...

      Hi Alan. As I posted, the adapter from Pial reverses the non-ground pins, which _may_ harm older appliances, or things like UPSs, which depend on the neutral output being in the correct position. Other adapters seem to work fine. A rule of thumb: if you look into the Brazilian side, consider the line between the two outer pins. If the center pin is on one side of this line, and the center pin on the US side is on the other side, the adapter should be OK.
      And of course this is valid for 110/127V only. For 220V all adapters are OK, as there's no neutral.

      XRay works well only up to 10.4. You didn't say which version you use, but creator codes have no effect from 10.6 or 10.7 on up, anyway. There's no way to set "kind" directly; this is set indirectly, mostly by the file extension. Type codes are used only if there's no extension at all, and will be obsolete soon, too. Email me if you need more details.

      Se for o teclado padrão Windows-Internacional para Mac, a partir do 10.6 vem embutido (chama-se "U.S.International - PC").
      Se for o teclado ABNT2 para Mac, ainda não tem, ainda não convenci a Apple a incluir.
      Se for para iPad, vem embutido. Só adicionar nas preferências->General->Keyboard->"Add New Keyboard" e selecionar "Portuguese (Brazil)".

      If you literally mean a badge, as a small overlay over the original icon, the Finder may still support 'badg' resources. Check out http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/309347-finder-integration.html and the links in that.

      I'm not using it myself, but a few friends are trying to do that. As soon as I get feedback from them (and finish my current app for review) I'll write it up.

      Depende dos defeitos, claro, e o software se acha na Internet. Me manda detalhes por email?

      Yes, will try to do it as soon as a reasonably stable beta comes out... but 10.8 is more strict about background processes. Which features do you use?

      The non-lite version will include that and several other checks, but I still have to get the lite version onto the App Store first. That said, I'm unsure whether a non-browser app would be vulnerable just by using Java.

      Em geral, há aplicativos que fazem tudo isso... mas é melhor aprender os padrões do Mac em vez de forçá-lo a agir exatamente como o Windows. Remapear teclas e fixar janelas (sério??) só vai causar dor de cabeça depois.
