Hi Esteban:
I have some trouble here with the Mac VM on the command-line.
Using 5.7.4.1 like this:
/Applications/Squeak\ 5.7.4.1.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak Pharo-1.2.image
results in a file dialog popping up instead of the image. And even worse, when I chose cancel the VM freezes.
The behavior on 5.8b12 is identical, but the Cog VM does not freeze on cancel.
Using absolute paths (also ~/tmp/pharo/Pharo-1.2.image is ok) works.
Ok, so far, that was already my problem yesterday.
Really new today is my next issue, headless operation:
/Applications/Squeak\ 5.7.4.1.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak -headless ~/tmp/pharo/Pharo-1.2.image
Without -headless it works just fine, with -headless, it pops up a file dialog again.
Is that know, or are there any work-arounds/newer VMs I should use?
Thanks
Stefan
