Hence, I create a simple shell script to launch my remote desktop connection. rdp files, but it does know how create Applications that launch shell scripts. Unfortunately Platypus does not know how to run.To do this I use an open source program called Platypus, that a coworker of mine told me about. rdp files, so I want to take it a step further and create a runnable Mac Application for each. Problem is that application launchers don't really know how to run.Now I can double-click on the file to be instantly connected to the remote server.Sometimes I tweak some of the other settings, but those two are of main importance.Under the Display tab I specify my preferred remote desktop size.Under the Login tab I enter account information.Apple Magic Trackpad or MacBook Trackpad: To enable right-click, click System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click. After installing the client and typing in the name of the server I want to connect to I go to preferences and customize the connection: Apple Magic Mouse: To enable right-click, clickSystem Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.I use the Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac to connect to the PC servers.Getting this setup on Mac OS X is a bit of a hassle, but here is basically what I do: I wanted to be able to use it to instantly launch connections to those servers without needing to type in anything but the first few letters of the server name.
My Mac launcher application of choice is Alfred. At work and at home I have a few PC servers that I frequently need to remote connect to.
