Apologies to all those that this is utterly irrelevant to, but I've had a
bunch of requests for something like this so thought I'd write it and post
to the list:

I've created an ant build script that will take in an idea unpacked .tar.gz
tree and create an OSX application from it. You shouldn't need to do
anything to beyond pass in the appropriate params to build.xml (if needed)

Usage:

Unpack the enclosed zip into some dir (eg, /idea-osxbuild)

Copy idea-ariadna-6XX to the above dir.

Run ant with:

ant -Dapp.src.dir=idea-ariadna-6XX -Dpkg.app.dir=/Applications

This will produce an IDEA application in the folder specified above, which
can then launch via the finder.

The build file will also do stuff like automatically enable jikes by
creating the appropriate symlink where IDEA expects it to be, as well as
setting your CVSPASS to the user's home dir .cvspass.
