                            Introduction [1.0]

    'ds' or "Dock Switcher" is a tool for switching between different
    configurations of your dock for OS X.

    It does this by replacing the preferences file for the dock
    which is stored in Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist,
    with other .plist files that you have saved aside previously.
    Once it has copied the new dock file in place, it restarts the
    Dock to make the changes take effect.


----------------------------------------
                     System Requirements [2.0]

    ds only requires that you have access to the terminal in OS X.
    It has been tested only on OS X "Jaguar" 10.2.5, but theoretically
    should work with any version of OS X.  It should be noted
    however that due to the possibility of Apple storing the
    preference files for the Dock differently between OS X versions,
    unexpected things might happen if you upgrade your OS and
    continue to try to use the old profiles with ds.

    If you screw up your system using this tool, I am not responsibile.
    Sorry.
