Enable color-coding for diff in TextMate

You can pipe output from diff command as well as pipe the output of a diff from a source control tool directly into TextMate (e.g., diff v1 v2 | mate or hg diff | mate).
However, you may be missing the nice coloring in the newly opened window that is supporte by TextMate by default. As it often is the case, getting this to work is easy but you first need to find how to get there. So, to toggle the coloring, simply press Ctrl+Option+Shift+D (if this does not work on your system, go to Bundles->Bundle Editor->Show Bundle Editor click on Diff bundle. In the Activation text field is the keyboard shortcut you can use to toggle color coding for diff). Enjoy!

Get rid of horizontal line in Word 2007

"This line is actually... Wait for it...! A border! Don't ask me how it got there, but all you need to do is highlight the section around the line (just left mouse, and pull a nice big block round the area, provided there are no tables nearby where you want to preserve a border). Then just go up to the border-line selection icon in the toolbar and choose the one that clears all borders."

Change reference indentation in Endnote

To change indentation in references when using EndNote (v8). For example:
Change from this:
[1] The Grid: Blueprint for a New Computing Infrastructure, 1st ed: Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, 1998.
To this:
[1] [TAB] The Grid: Blueprint for a New Computing Infrastructure, 1st ed: Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, 1998.

Go to EndNote, Edit->Output style->Edit "style"
Go to Bibliography->Templates and change EVERY entry to include tab in front of Author field (insert tab by clicking on 'Insert Filed' on the top right and selecting 'Tab'). For example:
Journal Article
[TAB] Author, "Title," Journal|, vol. Volume|, pp. Pages|, Year|.

As a side note, in EndNote style editing window, Citations are referring to in-text citations, while Bibliography is referring to the References/Bibliography at the end of the document.
