Use Secrets to greatly simplify 'defaults write' hints
Authored by: tempel on Dec 24, '08 08:27:34AM

The downside with Secrets is that maintenance is lacking. I've long ago found and reported mistakes in some settings, yet they didn't get fixed after days or even weeks (haven't checked lately, though. Would be nice to see that this has improved). While everyone can add new ones, we're not able to fix existing ones ourselves.

But in general, it's a great tool. Just don't trust them always, some are badly documented or even use wrong values for defaults etc (e.g, I've found some that would set an empty field where a 0 (zero) should be, or vice versa).
