Yeah.. a paths handling in OSX is a mess.. A command-line interface is also broken.

I will take Esteban in a dark room @ESUG and won't let him out till he will fix it :)

But to me the current implementation under OSX makes no sense whatsoever, since you basically get only half of the needed information back (ie. I don't know which executable is running the image)

Smalltalk vmFullPath yields '/Applications'

so what about getting at least the '.app' dir? (most of the information can be reconstructed from there on)

This would simply require to change setVMPathFromApplicationDirectory:

• self.vmPathStringURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath: [[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] stringByDeletingLastPathComponent]];

• self.vmPathStringURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath: [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath]];
