Use latexdiff e.g. latexdiff ../v01/Complete/main_v02.tex main_v02.tex > diff.tex Then compile diff.tex (and don't forget to run bibtex, though new citations don't show up as changes)

Insert->Break->Section break(continuous) Open formatting palette Uncheck "link to previous" Enter the new header/footer

From the first answer here : This is due to xcode install messing with /usr/share/terminfo The default terminal is xterm-256color which is removed from /usr/share/terminfo/78 If you have a TimeMachine backup, use that to restore /usr/share/terminfo.  If you don't, use the file provided here .

QFileInfo.created() on POSIX systems (like Mac OS X) returns the last modified time . This is annoying because on Mac OS X you know the system (e.g. finder) has access to the actual creation time. Turns out that BSD systems (like Mac OS X) have an extension to sys/stat.h that contains the file creation time. The recipe, then is (shown using the QT framework): #include <QtCore> #include <sys/stat.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QString fname("/Users/kghose/Sandbox/ChhobiTest/2005/2005_07_10/MVI_0693.AVI"); QDateTime thedatetime; struct stat64 the_time; stat64(fname.toStdString().c_str(), &the_time); thedatetime.setTime_t(the_time.st_birthtimespec.tv_sec); qDebug() << thedatetime; }

MenuMeters is an opensource program that does, very colorfully, what iStat does and works on Lion. The appearance is not as slick as iStat, but it is very configurable.
