Thanks, Chris. In answer to your question > what is different between hiding the dock and >using a hack to turn it off. In either case, the dock is not visible on >the screen, so why bother with some kind of a hack?
Because when I pass the cursor over the hidden dock it pops up like an unwanted younger brother during a hot date. Of course if there is a way of permanently hiding it I should be glad to know it. However MacUser has stated that it cannot be turned off or permanently hidden. >There are utilities out there that will move the trash can (or at least >put an alias to it), on the desktop, and you can already put the hard >drive on the desk top. There are also utils to give you an application >switcher... between those three things, you can replace the functionality >of the dock and then just leave it in hiding mode. Entirely agree: DragThing does all of the above and then some. Altogether more relaxing on that hot date.
