One more thing:<br>
<br>
executing<br>
os getcwd<br>
with the default Self.app (via Droplet)<br>
results in the path of the running image<br>
(eg, '/Users/myname/self/')<br>
<br>
whereas executing<br>
os getcwd<br>
with the new app results in<br>
'/'<br>
which leads to the problem that the example<br>
runScript-s do not work.<br>
<br>
Either way, have the image dir as cwd seems reasonable,<br>
but this, too, prevents from executing stuff like<br>
'applications/smalltalk/smalltalk.self' runScript<br>
Or am I doing something stupid here?<br>
<br>
Best<br>
