Argh. So, I downloaded the .zip file from colloquy.info, but there's no readme, or any other kind of installation instruction. I'm also not finding any installation instruction on their page.
Looking at the file structure of the exploded .zip, I see the top level directory is colloquy.app, inside of which is a directory called Contents, and inside that a few more. These look very similar to what I see under /Library/"Application Support"/ Do I simply copy this tree to that folder in order to install Colloquy? Do I leave the .app as part of the directory name, or not? i.e. is it: /Library/Application Support/colloquy.app or /Library/Application Support/colloquy Does it matter? I know I've done this once or twice before, but don't recall the specifics, so appreciate any guidance. tia Janina 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries writes: > Not all apps are in the iTunes store.
