    Hello there,

    I'm working on implementing QLC+ into the school auditorium to replace an old light console, and I'm curious about the web interface. I went to the command line on the Mac to enable web mode, but I can't manage to enable it. First, I typed "cd /Applications/QLC+.app/Contents/MacOS" to get into the application files. Then I typed "qlcplus -w" to trigger the web feature, but Terminal told me that the qlcplus command was not found. What am I missing?

    Thanks for your help,

    Jaydon

    Hi, you need to add "./" before the command. "./" means "from here":

    ./qlcplus -w

    or you can launch it with the absolute path:

    /Applications/QLC+.app/Contents/MacOS/qlcplus -w

    Thank you! That worked perfectly, but is there a way to reference a file path when using the --open tag? For instance: "-o /Desktop/filename.qxw"?
