Actually you can do it without even downloading anything:
svn log -v http://svn.squeakland.org/installers
I guess you tried updating from within the Etoys-To-Go.app directory, which was removed, so that's why svn told you it could not update.
Yes. Thanks for the tip.
It's not even released, don't declare it dead already ;) I hope it will become the if-all-else-fails version of Etoys that Simply Works.
I am sure it will become the preferred way for children. I have been carrying Etoys on a chip for over two years and I can't imagine working any other way now :-).
Yes, somehow I replaced it with an older version. But the one checked in now should be okay, yes?
Looks good. The TMP copy trick can also be merged. It will be a null-op for traditional launch from /usr/share.
Doing it manually is error-prone. The makeEtoysToGo script exports Etoys.app as Etoys-To-Go.app and then exports the Etoys-To-Go files on top of it. Very simple.
etoys.sh is maturing well. We could retain Linux-i686/squeak as a binary and move etoys.sh as Linux-i686/etoys. A small desktop launcher at the top level can override the default settings in this launcher. This would be consistent across platforms. See http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/etoys/2009-March/003053.html
I haven't figured out how to do such overrides on OSX yet. I am sure there is a way.
