DevToolsSecurity(1) BSD General Commands Manual DevToolsSecurity(1)NAME
DevToolsSecurity -- Change the security authorization policies for developer systems
SYNOPSIS
DevToolsSecurity
DESCRIPTION
This tool changes the security authorization policies for use of Apple-code-signed debugger and performance analysis tools on development
systems.
On normal user systems, the first time in a given login session that any such Apple-code-signed debugger or performance analysis tools are
used to examine one of the user's processes, the user is queried for an administator password for authorization.
When the Xcode developer tools are installed, the post-install script automatically runs this DevToolsSecurity tool to change the authoriza-
tion policies, such that a user who is a member of either the admin group or the _developer group does not need to enter an additional pass-
word to use the Apple-code-signed debugger or performance analysis tools.
Developers will typically not need to run this tool manually. If for some reason it needs to be run manually, it can be run from the usr/bin
folder inside the Xcode tools folder. For example, if the Xcode tools were installed at /Developer, then the script can be run from /Devel-
oper/usr/bin/DevToolsSecurity.

xcrun
xcrun -- run or locate development tools
SYNOPSIS
xcrun [-sdk SDK] -find <tool_name>
xcrun [-sdk SDK] [-log] <tool_name> [<tool_arguments>]
<tool_name> [<tool_arguments>]
DESCRIPTION
xcrun provides a means locate or invoke coexistence- and platform-aware developer tools from the command-line, without requiring users to
modify makefiles or otherwise take laborious or inconvenient measures to adopt Xcode's multiple tool chains.
xcode-select is used to specify which installation of Xcode is used, and may be overridden by the DEVELOPER_DIR environment variable.
The SDK defaults to the current OS SDK, and can be specified by SDKROOT environment variable or the -sdk flag (which takes precedences over
SDKROOT).
USAGE
The first usage returns the full path to the found tool_name.
The second usage executes tool_name with the given tool_arguments.
The last syntax is when xcrun replaces any of the standard UNIX developer tools (typically in /usr/bin). In this case, xcrun will use its
tool name to locate the corresponding tool within evaluated DEVELOPER_DIR and SDK.
If the tool is not named xcrun , tool_arguments are not parsed by xcrun.
OPTIONS -verbose
display information about how the redirected path is constructed.
-no-cache
don't consult the cache when looking up values. In effect, causes the cache to be refreshed.
-sdk SDK
specifies which SDK to use. Overrides any SDKROOT set in the environment.
-log print the full command line that is invoked.
-find
print the full path to the tool.
ENVIRONMENT
DEVELOPER_DIR - specifies the search path for locating the current developer tools (overrides xcode-select default).
SDKROOT - specifies the SDK to use; overriden by the command line -sdk flag.
xcrun_log - same as specifying -log
xcrun_nocache - same as specifying -no-cache
xcrun_verbose - same as specifying -verbose
DIAGNOSTICS
When xcrun is invoked with the name xcrun , the flags -log and -verbose are useful debugging aids. The flag -no-cache can be used to bypass
cache lookup.
When xcrun as taken the place of another tool, the arguments are those of the tool replaced, and the various xcrun flags can't be used. In
this case, use the specific environment variables instead.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
