Moi Nick,
not that I'm active, but I am still listening in on the list, and it is 
an iMac that I type with.

This mac distribution issue has been up last year, when Craig had 
developed a nice general tool, that would run any script (ruby for 
sure) as an application with a gui. That approach, also taken by the 
wxPython folks, is much more flexible for the end user.

Off course, how that ties in with all the needed libraries I would not 
know.

I'll forward Craigs old mail, in case you never got it,

Torsten
