How To: Add a Recent Aplications Stack on Leopard (Terminal)

In OSX leopard, there is something called stacks which shows can show you many things including the most recent applications. This involves a couple of terminal hacks though so make sure everything valuable is backed up on your computer. First open up terminal and type in defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '{ "tile-data" = { "list-type" = 1; }; "tile-type" = "recents-tile"; }'. Press enter then in terminal type in killall Dock (this is case sensitive).
This will close the dock and reopen it in seconds. Once finished, you should have a recent applications stack. You can change this to recent documents, recent servers, favorite volumes and favorite items just by simply clicking and holding on it and holding and then selecting what you want. Please leave a response if you have a comment or question.

I've, um, noticed that you've spelt APPLICATIONS incorrectly. Do you spell - check before you post, or do you, as I suspect, just guess and hope for the best ? Or maybe you need to read more novels and gain a greater command of the English vocabulary and its application.
