Subject: [Fontforge-users] question about downloading FontForge 
 
Dear FontForge Community,
 
I apologize if the answer has been asked and answered by others already.
 
From what I can tell, FontForge looks great and I am excited to start working with it.
 
I believe I have followed instructions step by step at:
http://fontforge.github.com/en-US/downloads/mac.html
 
But after I move the FontForge.app to /Applications and double click on the app, nothing happens even after a long while (10 minutes).
 
I've installed XQuartz and X11, and turned off "Enable key equivalents under X11"
 
The only thing I can think of is that I don't see the following option in my version of the Mac OS (10.6.8):
 
You may need to go to System Preferences, Security, unlock, and allow Mac apps fromEverywhere.
 
Thanks for any help you can give.
 
Kevin
