Jack Audio
The easiest is to install the precompiled binaries.
Jack Audio Connection Kit
The Jack audio connection kit can be found at http://jackaudio.org/
QJackCtl
QJackCtl is highly recommended instead of jackpilot. It is kind of harder to find online as binary version. Is can be found in this strange place http://ardour.org/osx_system_requirements
Note: The program starts, but cannot start jackd. I am in the meantime using jackpilot to start it and then QJackCtl to make connections. I tried to compile the source but it doesn't find qt frameworks... The bug seems to be that QJackCtl is using the option -n instead of -d for the device in coreaudio.
Finder
Sort Folders Before Files
This only works when you sort by kind... Just edit with emacs or any other text editor (as root) the file:
System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
and change the line:
/* General kind strings */ "Folder" = "Folder";
to:
"Folder" = "~Folder";
Restart OS X.
