This WordPress lookup tool aims to provide a quick gateway to various documentation sources.
The layout and design is kept simple to allow integration of this page within various IDEs. Intentionally this page was created to hook into Coda.
You can also add wphit.com as a search engine in your browser and various indexes allow easy navigation between topics.

I recently was pointed to ack for scanning a huge pile of files for a certain pattern. So far I was always using grep, awk, cut, sed and such in combination with find to build whatever I needed. But having a look at ack reveals that my life could have been much easier. Here are some simple examples:
Search for a pattern recursively through directories, while ignoring .svn, CVS and other VCS directories:
With grep: grep pattern $(find . -type f | grep -v '\.svn')
With ack: ack pattern
Search for a pattern in all perl files, while ignoring .svn directories:
With grep: grep pattern $(find . -name '*.pl' -or -name '*.pm' -or -name '*.pod' | grep -v .svn)
With ack: ack --perl pattern
That’s it for the basics. More on their manual page at http://betterthangrep.com/
Just a last one:
Get a list of all functions and their parameters attached to your “wp_head” action hook of a WordPress installation.
With grep: please don’t make me do it.
With ack: ack "add_action\((.*[\"|'](.*)[\"|'][,|\s]+.*)\)" --output="hook: \$1, params: \$2"
Ack is better than grep! – And it’s not only their slogan. – http://bit.ly/6e183w

Finally Windows7 let’s you define the way the caps-lock key should act. I know people who even tried to remove this key with pliers, killing their whole keyboard. This is now over after 15 years of Windows.
Go to Control Panel->Clock, Language and Region->Change keyboards or other input methods->Keyboards and Languages->Change keyboards->Advanced Key Settings and select “Press the SHIFT key” and from now on shift will cancel caps-lock.
I just stumbled upon GeekTool which is great for displaying all sorts of information directly on your desktop in OSX.
You can even add a simple status monitor for your servers by following these steps.
Install GeekTool and open your GeekTool preferences and follow these steps
ping -t 30 -qc 10 address_to_ping_without_http | grep "packet loss" | grep "10 packets received"For more GeekTool goodies check out this site
Use GeekTool 3 as Server Status monitor (http://bit.ly/846Dtm) #Blog posts
