Installing gcc on Mountain lion

Mountain lion does not include gcc, and the compiler comes with Xcode 4.3 is llvm, not gcc.

Installing HomeBrew
$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"


Installing gcc with c++ support (c and c++ supports are enough for me)
$ brew install --enable-cxx --use-llvm https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-dupes/master/gcc.rb

Note: When installing HomeBrew, the installer changes permission for /usr/local/.
==> /usr/bin/sudo /bin/chmod g+rwx /usr/local/. /usr/local/bin /usr/local/include /usr/local/lib

Wireshark on Mac: Changing menu fonts

You can change a font for captured data from preferences, but it doesn't change the font for the application menu. To make the ugly unpleasant font acceptable, change "pre_gtkrc" file in "/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/themes/Clearlooks-Quicksilver-OSX/gtk-2.0/"

1. Change the font

#gtk-font-name="Lucida Grande 12"

gtk-font-name="Sans 10"

2. Change the menu sizes (buttons, etc.)

#gtk-icon-sizes = "gtk-menu=16,16:gtk-dialog=48,48:gtk-dnd=32,32:gtk-button=20,20:gtk-large-toolbar=24,24:gtk-small-toolbar=16,16:inkscape-decoration=12,12"

gtk-icon-sizes = "gtk-menu=14,14:gtk-dialog=24,24:gtk-dnd=32,32:gtk-button=14,14:gtk-large-toolbar=14,14:gtk-small-toolbar=10,10:inkscape-decoration=6,6"

3. Results

4. Notes

- Lucida Grande is the default system font for Mac, but it looks completely difference under X11.

- The environment is rMBP Mid 2012 running Mountain lion 10.8.2.

- The output is somewhat blurred since X11 cannot handle the retina display.
