How the get the 512x512 icon for any iPhone app.
How the get the 512x512 icon for an app.
Look for this app on the itunes.apple.com website (Google is your friend)
For example, this excellent app.
http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/bancomap/id309009025?mt=8
Look for the URL of the icon in the page (it's a 175x175 picture).
I use Safari, so right click on the icon and choose "Inspect Element"

Add a Run Script phase to your Xcode project and add this script to detect if you use autolayout in your 5.x target
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# Check if we're running for 5.1 deployment and any .xib view has autolayout on.
#
use File::Find qw(find);
my $deployment = $ENV{'IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'};
my $project_dir = $ENV{'PROJECT_DIR'};
print "Deploy to $deployment\n";

sburlot / objcio2instapaper.rb
Created October 9, 2013 23:10
This ruby script fetches all articles from an issue of the excellent objc.io periodical and send them to Instapaper. This script should be automated so it runs automatically when a new issue is available. Perhaps parsing the RSS?
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
# fetches the content of an objc.io issue and send it to Instapaper

# First version Oct 10, 2013
# ruby was installed via homebrew, so the path to ruby is /usr/local/bin
# you may need to change it to the actual path of your ruby installation.
