#     Add Item to Dock tips
#    ========================



# Add items from a file to the dock
# Depending upon the format of your file, you may need to alter this command slightly.
# An example line from the input file : /Applications/System Preferences.app/

# Note : some characters in the path will cause issues.
echo additemtodock `cat "$inputfile" | sed '/^$/d' | sed 's/^/"/' | sed 's/$/"/'` | bash


# This technique works well with RADmind. You can manage symbolic links with radmind
# and then add all these items to a input file. If the file file is available
# it will be added to the dock. If the symbolic link is not available then the
# item will not be added to the dock.
