Easy way to restart Dock in Tiger?
Authored by: Nostromo1965 on Apr 30, '05 01:47:33AM

Just open Terminal, and:

kill Dock

and the Dock will quit/vanish, then reload.

DUH!

It *should* be:

killall Dock

I prefer
killall -HUP Dock
his results in a much nicer shutdown of the dock, its really like sending a Quit+Restart command to the Dock, rather than a Force Quit
