Hi Mr. Burke-

I did a complete re-install of j701 from the latest DMG. OSX 10.6.6, Macbook4,1.

I was able to do the install of the GTK IDE without any problems from start to 
finish. (I did elect to install only certain parts of JAL, as opposed to 'all'.)

For me, jgtk701.app loads the IDE, so provisionally, you might want to delete 
the "shortcut not working" item from the Notes.

The biggest niggle for me was a lack of progress reporting when downloading the 
GTK library:

> azonips:~$ /Users/cturner/Applications/j701/bin/jconsole ; exit;
>    install 'gtkide'
> Updating server catalog...

Here with Verizon DSL, it's not a brief wait, far longer than a server catalog 
update. Also, completion is simply indicated by placing the cursor on another 
indented line. Took me a while realize the download was finished, and I've been 
through this drill a few times now.

Best wishes, Charles
