apologies for slight off-topic Q -- i have two new OSX apps that were exported from older programs written to run on UNIX mainframes. they were a little lazy, and the apps do not have an installer. you have to copy the files manually, and then write a shell script before they will run under OSX transparently.

i don't want to learn UNIX, i just want to run these apps. i anticipate that trying to extract just the minimum amount of knowledge from some "UNIX for Retards" tome will turn out to be a black hole for time, and a vulcan nerve pinch to my emotional and spiritual stability. i just want to run these apps.

can anyone please tell me where i can find a step by step cook-book recipe for doing only this? i don't care to understand why the things i type are important and what they actually do or mean. i just want to run the apps. can anyone point me to some online help, somewhere?

i just want to run the apps.

TIA,

john (i just want to run these #*ยข%^&g apps)
