Dock Stopped Working in OS X?

It doesn't happen often, but when it does, I don't want to have to restart my computer to fix it (or anything, really).

Every now and then, on OS X, my Dock disappears and I can't Cmd+Tab between applications anymore. After a bit of searching around on forums, I found the solution; kill the Dock process from Terminal.

killall -KILL Dock

After killing the process, a new Dock will automatically start up.

Problem solved!
