However, I assume that it works like any other Mac app, i.e. the actual executable is embedded somewhere in the bundle, usually in a standard place. If you're opening the program in the Finder, it will always start in your home directory. However, you can still launch the program on the command line in any directory you choose, by calling the executable itself. For instance, in MacPyMOL, /Applications/MacPyMOL.app/Contents/MacOS/MacPyMOL is the real command, and I have alias pymol='/Applications/MacPyMOL.app/Contents/MacOS/MacPyMOL' in my .profile.
