Hi Jim!

The separate launchers were never in, nor planned. However the linux ones  - both shell and native,
should work. To apologise mysef, I do not own, nor have close enough, any Mac thing. Nor anybody
arround have :( Otherwise I would give it a try.

Fro your simple script, there is not much what had changed.  Do you mind to debug why our launchers
stopped to work? As this would be really good to fix in release time.

Tahnx!
