I can't get the blazing fast key repeat to work. No matter what I set, no matter how many times I restart, it always seems to be the same. Only changes via system preferences.

ruby <(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

Two points:

  • The "zsh installation" actually just installs oh-my-zsh.
  • The best way to install Postgres on Mac OS these days is Postgres.app.
