#70 -open doesn't work from command line

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

In the 0.39.2 versions of Pd-extended, the command line
flags are ignored when launching with
"Pd.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd -open ..."

This works fine in Pd-extended 0.38.4 and Pd 0.39-2
from Miller.

Here it give an error msg.

$ /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd -open <somefile>.pd
sh: line 1: /Applications/Wish.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish: No such file or directory

This is RC3.

Note that Millers build (of 0.40-2) don't need the "-open" flag to open a file on start up.

It seems command line flags are still a problem on OS X:

#dataflow 14:40 < stffn> ClaudiusMaximus: but the instructions in the email about running `pd -path src/ -lib lua` from the pdlua dir don't work on macosx since Pd on macosx have bad support for startup flags. '-help' works, but...

Just so you know, Claude, this didn't work. But when I put both the lua.pd_darwin and pd.lua into the 'extras' folder of the application I compiled it against, everything appears to work fine.

this works more in 0.41.4, but not complelely. If you sent -nogui first, then the command line flags all work.
