Firefox 16 adds more developer muscle, but Mac OS features lag A new dev toolbar and command line for Firefox, but Lion gestures are AWOL. In addition, as you type into the Command Line bar. All the Mac Applications below work on Mac OS Mojave (version 10.14), and earlier Macintosh Operating Systems including macOS High Sierra (version 10.13), macOS Sierra (version 10.12) and so on. First Auto Typer for Mac allows you to Assign a Configurable Keyboard Shortcut to a Text Sentence to Type.

Abstract
Drosophila melanogaster have two sets of muscle systems: larval muscles and adult muscles. The larval somatic muscle system is established during embryogenesis and is necessary for hatching, feeding, and crawling of the larvae. Like humans, Drosophila muscles have individual characteristics, like unique sizes, shapes, orientations, attachment sites, and innervation patterns by motor neurons. These properties are encoded by a group of transcriptional regulators that are expressed in specific muscle subsets. Currently, there are over twenty known transcription factors required for the development of the 30 distinct larval somatic muscles and specification of those muscle properties. We have examined how muscle-specific neuron defasciculation and innervation occurs using genetics, immunohistochemistry, and fluorescent microscopy to identify muscle-specific factors that regulate the process of neuron innervation. We tested how loss-of-function mutations in lateral transverse muscle-specific transcription factors affect innervation of these muscles by the segmental nerve, to identify muscle-specific factors that regulate the process of neuron innervation. We examined the muscle patterns by immunostaining with antibodies to two sarcomeric proteins: myosin heavy chain (MHC) and tropomyosin (TM). Similarly, we examined the architecture of the segmental nerve in these genetic backgrounds using antibodies that recognized FITC-HRP and Fasciclin II (Fas-II). Confocal microscopy images show wild-type embryos with proper muscle patterning of the four lateral transverse muscles, corresponding to proper nerve branching. However, the apUGO35, mid1, and msh∆68 lines displayed defects in lateral transverse muscle patterning, corresponding to an absence of proper nerve branching.

Kinesis has introduced the Freestyle Solo “split” keyboard. It’s priced at $99.
The Freestyle Solo can separate its two halves up to eight inches. Escape, Deleted and Backspace keys are double-wide to make them easier to find. The entire keyboard uses quiet tactile switches with special low force to reduce typing effort, according to the manufacturer.
Muscle Typer Mac Os X
Kinesis also offers a separate numeric keypad and palm supports. Other accessories include an incline accessory that adds a 10 degree lateral slope (“tenting”) to relax your forearm muscles. Kinesis also makes the V-Lifter and Integrated Palm Supports (or VIP) accessory.

The Freestyle Solo is plug-and-play compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
