Dockless Usage TipDoesn't play well with X11 on 10.5 - Version: 2.0.1, 9/28/2008 07:31PM PST

wgscott
This is X11.app's fault, not Dockless, but I found out the hard way that the new X11.app does not behave well when Dockless tries to make it dockless. For example, launchd launching no longer works.

I had used this previously to run the X11 server in the background, which I started on login on 10.4 and earlier.

X11 now "just works" whenever an X-windows program is launched. But the icon in the dock can be a bit irritating.

Dockless CommentaryVersion 2 won't run on my Mac - Version: 2.0.0, 9/21/2008 05:14PM PST

I've been using v1.3.3 for ages now, and it's always been great. But version 2 shows up with the circle/slash icon over it on my PPC iMac running 10.5.5. Not sure why it's "not supported on this architecture."

Dockless CommentaryDoes this work with Intel-based Macs? - Version: 1.3.3, 7/28/2008 11:30AM PST

dnem41
On that note, it says this software is compatible with 10.3 and higher. Has anyone tried this on 10.5 (Leopard)? I see from some prior posts had some problems. I wonder if this is because it's not compatible with Intel Macs. Let me know. Thanks.

Dockless ReviewHighly recommended - Version: 1.3.3, 12/26/2004 11:38AM PST

Andreas..

We all have apps which we don't want to show in the Dock. While quite possible to navigate into "Contents/Info.plist" who wants the bother? This tiny, elegant app makes it a 5-second job. (OS 10.3.7)

Thanks to the developer – and thanks for putting it out free.

Dockless ReviewWOULD NOT RECOMMEND - Version: 1.3.1, 8/7/2004 01:08AM PST

This app causes major issues with Panther. I would NOT recommend installing unless one is savvy with how to uninstall and make appropriate changes needed to restore your Mac to a functional state!!!!!!

Dockless Usage TipPather Cache - Version: 1.3.1, 3/6/2004 11:34AM PST

barbini
Panther caches. Dragging the application from the Applications folder to your desktop and back should clear the cache for that application. Launchbar in particular has instructions in its help documentation on how to remove the dock icon while running. That's where I learned about the Panther caching problem/feature. ;)
