CultofMac.com website has a nice article here referencing this Github page here maintained by Mathias Bynens that show you all sorts of Terminal Commands on the Mac to customize the Mac. It is a great resource. The Github page is incredibly in-depth. There are all sorts of commands you which allows you to make all sorts of changes to the OSX and Apple programs on the Macintosh. For a power user of the Mac this is an amazing resource.
Here are some that caught my eye as being really useful:
# Disable hibernation (speeds up entering sleep mode) sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0 # Set Desktop as the default location for new Finder windows # For other paths, use `PfLo` and `file:///full/path/here/` defaults write com.apple.finder NewWindowTarget -string "PfDe" defaults write com.apple.finder NewWindowTargetPath -string "file://${HOME}/Desktop/"
Check out the CultofMac site and the Github site for more information. Really helpful.
