Leopard Dock tweak 2D-3D (tweak series)

This tweak turns your dock into a 2D dock like tiger had (go knows why would you like to do that):
1. go into terminal and write:
   defaults write com.apple.Dock no-glass -bool yes;
   killall Dock

the dock will disappear, wait for 5 sec and the dock will reappear, there you go you have a 2D dock,

1. in order to go back to a 3D you need to use these commands:
   defaults write com.apple.Dock no-glass -bool no;
   killall Dock

hi,
i think nothing would happen, since this default key is related to the Dock.app version of leopard, and not of Tiger, since Tiger does not read or relate to this key it will not try to react uppon it.

the interesting question is what will happen if you take a dock.app from leopard and copy it into Tiger, will it work?

i will try it and keep you posetd. some times in the next two days
