[squeak-dev] Running headless on a Mac

Dear Squeakers,

Should this work with current CogSpur VMs? I can’t make it work.

I can run this and it opens a window shortly, and prints „test" on the console:
CogSpur.r3684.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak Squeak5.1-15113.image test.st

My test.st looks like this:
Smalltalk runAndQuit: [FileStream stdout nextPutAll: ‚test‘; cr]

However, if I run the following
CogSpur.r3684.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak -headless my Squeak5.1-15113.image test.st
I get „Error: No content to install“

I also tried this:
CogSpur.r3684.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak -headless Squeak5.1-15113.image test.st

I get „Syntax Error: UndefinedObject y“, <<<This string contains a character (ascii value 25) that is not normally used in code>>> y  @   `Argument expected

The same happens with an up-to-date trunk image.

Any tips?

Cheers,
Bernhard
