Re: [Hydrogen-devel] mac os x installation

[Matteo M. <mat...@gm...>]

Hi, I was working on the mac port of hydrogen and I've already written
some scripts that produce an application bundle, copying data,
libraries and changing the library references of the executable..
The bundle produced works fine if launched from terminal, but doesn't
work when double-clicked and I cannot understand the reason..

I will post the scripts this evening (doesn't have them at hand right now)
