I just wanted to know whether I would have interest in digging in what you made to check with my stuff or not. I don't mind you to take it.

I'm not sure it is the correct way to go. Keepind the AbiSuite directory inside the application bundle is IMHO what we should do, and we should build plug-ins as bundles too that we throw either in the application bundle or in some user location like ~/Library/AbiSuite > The tricky bit is in the wrapper scripts.

Currently the Mac port does NOT care for the ABISUITE_HOME dir. IMHO it will find it using bundle services. Hub
