OS X (Leopard) Hidden Gem : OpenSnoop

Another post by me over @ TAB looking at opensnoop, a cool dtrace utility that lets you monitor file opens.

Lots of good stuff came with Apple incorporating DTrace into Leopard. Load the Developer tools to get access to Instruments.app for some GUI-DTrace goodness and poke around man -k dtrace for some command-line DTrace fun.

DTrace is great for developers, but it has some security benefits as well, which I'll hopefully get some time to explain in the coming weeks.
