CopyQ

Found this today, CopyQ, seems like a great clipboard manager. Let's see if it beats ClipIt.

Massive photo tagging

Use exiftool!

sudo apt-get install libimage-exiftool-perl
~/Pictures/2012> exiftool -keywords+=2012 -overwrite_original -q *


This will tag all photos under current folder, recursively, with the tag 2012.

Disable Unity Spread

The Spread function is lagging on my laptop and I have, for a long time, tried to find a way to disable it.

Now I have to search no more! Unity Tweak Tool to the rescue.



Open the program, then goto Window management -> Window spread -> Disable.

Spread is used when you click the app icon in the launcher and there are (at least) two available windows for that app.

Faster photo viewer

Not sure why they use Gnome Image Viewer as the default image viewer in Ubuntu. I prefer gThumb, which is a lot faster.


Simply open up All Settings -> Details -> Default Applications and select your favorite image viewer there.
