Possible apologies on two accounts: 1. I don`t have an answer to your query (as a non-Mac user) 2. I want to suggest a totally different alternative which *might* be appropriate, especially since you are teaching non-CS majors...

Playing with Tkinter, I wrote this: > Trying to save you the trouble of writing your own simple set of graphics functions... Have you had a look at Crunchy? http://code.google.com/p/crunchy/ It's still in development. However, it does have built-in graphics functions available. If you're curious, start it (it should launch your webbrowser - only tested with Firefox, not Safari), then go to the menu Tutorials -> Using Crunchy (on top), and from the left menu that will be displayed, select Graphics: drawing. Also, you won't have a console window ;-) If you find this totally off-topic, please accept my apologies.
