Re: [Rails-users] Open in Mac

[Chris S. <chr...@gm...>]

Sorry, you can't do that.  The rails.command file just opens rails in the
correct directory, saving time navigating to find things.

Best I can tell, you can't do it on Windows or Linux either.  This, combined
with being unable to close a game without closing the entire program, is the
single biggest usability problem with Rails.
