Shortcut icons
Authored by: lowbatteries on Dec 22, '09 09:44:26AM

Once you are connected to a machine, you can grab the little icon in the center of the titlebar and put that in a folder.

I then do CMD+I on the computer in the Finder sidebar and on the shortcut file, and copy the copy the computer icon from one to another.

Now I have a VNC shortcut to that computer, that actually looks like that computer. I put a bunch of those in a folder in my Dock, and now I've got a nice visual stack of computers to connect to. Of course, this only is that cool if you have several different types of macs.

JFYI: that little icon is called the "proxy icon".
