I was just going to suggest that. Since you already did that on windows, what's the reason why that approach doesn't work for you on OSX (with a shell script)? I also don't see why you needed a .exe, the user can just click on the script... or is it just because people are used to launch programs from clicking executables? > Gesendet: Freitag, 13.
