I wrote a simple shell script to run slrn: #!/bin/sh /sw/bin/slrn Saving this as ~/Applications/slrn.command, making it executable, and double-clicking it launches slrn as desired. This has the disadvantage that it can only use the default Terminal settings, but that isn’t too big of a deal for me. Thanks all! -- Benjamin D.
