Sorry, my e-mail has been down since friday evening. Where
are we here. Which stuff have you already resolved :-). What stuff
can I look into for you or test?
Cheers,
Steve

Another OS X issue is that in OS X /etc/passwd is not the system of

maybe you could bypass this by getting the sytem env variable "SHELL"


In UNIX shell's there is a big problem. I cannot just execute 'echo $SHELL'
because this will not handle macro expansion. You just get back a '$SHELL'
from echo.


However I can just do an env on the system and load all the parameters at
Env.class static initialization time.


Let me see what the command is first to get OS X to return the user shell.
I think I fudged it up by attempting to read the /etc/passwd file.


I think I hate environment properties now.
