I guess that is the problem, on OSX only binaries in application 
bundles have full-featured access to the Window Server.

What you should do is create a minimal app bundle for the application 
and copy the executable into it:

	mkdir -p buttons.app/Contents/MacOS
	cp buttons buttons.app/Contents/MacOS/buttons

I'm not sure if an Info.plist is required, you can copy one from 
another application.

Now run buttons.app/Contents/MacOS/buttons and you should have a 
working application.

P.S. There is an undocumented function that can be used to enable full 
access to the window server, someone posted code for that in the PyObjC 
patch manager (http://sf.net/projects/pyobjc,  and then the patches 
tab).
