I know little about the mac, but I can tell right away that the file path you have is wrong:

If you've only ever dealt with clickable folders, the concept of file paths might be a bit foreign, but absolute paths (and I think you want absolute, not relative) need to start with a "/".
It sounds to me like the current mac version requires unix experience to have a chance at running it. I suspect most Mac people have never popped the hood on OSX (and the hood wasn't really poppable on previous versions anyway) so they don't know what to do when the instructions say edit such and such a file and replace blah-blah-blah with the path to your home directory. Essentially we are asking them to pop the hood and rewire their car's engine to get fgfs working. We probably need some sort of better packaging for Mac if we want to get anywhere there. (This stuff of course really isn't all that hard, but for someone with absolutely zero unix experience, you really have to spell out every keystroke in order.)
Regards,
Curt.

Doesn't make any sense. Any ideas what you did differently? Again,
sorry to bother you, but this is bedeviling me, and the program looks
great.
