I figured out what was going on with this. When you install Java 8 from Oracle, it only registers itself as being able to run java Applets inside your web browser, and not able to run desktop applications. So, Mac OS X picks the only version on the system which says it can run desktop apps -- the older version supplied with the operating system. I think I've managed to work around this in version 1.8.7 by changing how our applications start. 1.8.7 also comes with an installer script which fixes the warnings you get when running the application. The readme describes how to execute the script (control clicking on the script and then selecting 'Run'). I'd love feedback from anyone running Mac OS X to see if things are better. -- -keith
