Many only need SIP to be disabled long enough to install into protected locations, but run fine if SIP is re-enabled afterwards. The tuntap macOS package <http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net> is the most recent one I've used that fits the description.

Makes sense as long as one is confident in what one is installing with SIP off. tuntap fits that, at least. Not even sure if I have tuntap installed at present. I seem to recall needing it for a VPN at some point. Latest version of that client seems to be more self contained. -- She hummed to herself because she was an unrivaled botcher of lyrics. -Nick (Gone Girl), Gillian Flynn.

I'm using it to run a network interface for Basilisk II that can be reached from the internet (the built-in slirp interface can't reach the net) so I can run an image of Zippy in emulation on a Mac mini Server: <http://zippy.kicks-ass.org:9997> Zippy's currently taking a much-needed rest in a padded box after I replaced his cooling fan. : ) -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.

My son says his > development sessions can't go more than about an hour. This case goes beyond the "Mac vs. PC" conversation that's been in this thread thus far. Since your son's nervous system can't deal with the animations and you can't customize the interface to turn them off, then don't use a Mac. He's seriously restricted by his neurology, then he shouldn't be using a system that interferes with it. The Mac or even a Window box isn't trying to be all things to all people. If you can't make it work for you and customize it, then don't use it. Run Ubuntu. Seriously. (or whatever Linux flavor works for him on a laptop that will run it). And yes, he gives up all the Mac-centric stuff. But if it's making him sick and he can't deal with it, then don't use a computer that makes you sick. -- DeeDee, don't press that button! DeeDee! NO!

That's how I knew what keys to use, the Ctrl-<arrow> keys. Now the wild thing is that I DL'd TinkerTool, told it to eliminate the animation and chose No Delay.

No, unintentionally; because the speed of the transition is as irrelevant as its colour. -- Malcolm

Not when motion sickness is an issue, the speed of the transition is extremely important. But regardless, the transition *feels* faster and there's no animation, so I suspect no motion sickness either. In earlier versions of the OS, there were defaults that could be changed via the command line. defaults write com.apple.dock expose-animation-duration -float 0.15 Also, using ^1 to go to space one is about twice as fast as using control-left to go left one space. If the computer in question doesn't understand the defaults command and doesn't have a reduce motion setting in Accessibility, then upgrade it to Sierra. -- 'What good is a candle at noonday?' --Sourcery

Yes. Odd and interesting that. > If the computer in question doesn't understand the defaults command and > doesn't have a reduce motion setting in Accessibility They all understand the defaults command. He probably has Reduce Motion in Accessibility but it may not do the slide. -- Malcolm

Yes, but the faster the slide the less noticeable it is. >> Also, using ^1 to go to space one is about twice as fast as using >> control-left to go left one space. > Yes.

In some versions of OS X, including Lion I believe, the defaults command to disable the animation does not do anything at all. But in Sierra, the setting to reduce motion removes the animation. -- We are born naked, wet and hungry; then it's all downhill.

'Understanding' the defaults command and the availability of options to it are different matters. Though not mentioned above, the availability _is_ actually the crucial concern for the issue at hand. > But in Sierra, the setting to reduce motion removes the animation. Thank you for that confirmation; I'll pass it along to him. -- Malcolm
