My package actually does not use a .fgfsrc file. It passes the flags straight to fgfs. And I don't understand resource forks either. And have never worked with them.
I couldn't get fgrun to compile on OSX and so have started to write one that's OS X native using Cocoa and AppleScript. (Applescript Studio) Right now you can select the aircraft but that's it. Although it's working. If it works out good it could be used in future binary packages. No more messing with the Terminal, but with all it's advantages.
