Change Safari 4 tabs back to Safari 3 style (Safari 4 Beta)

Safari 4 has some major UI changes, like the new tab bar layout. You're not alone if you hate the new tab bar, and here's a way to revert it to the style used in Safari 3:

Safari 4 with Safari 3 tab bar


To change the tab bar, enter the following command in terminal:

defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4TabBarIsOnTop -bool NO

To reset the blue loading bar in stead of the spinner, enter the following commands:

defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4IncludeToolbarRedesign -bool NO
defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4LoadProgressStyle -bool NO

Safari beta is the latest browser of it and it's really a wonderful tabing system also..
