Hello,

You can use the "open" shell utility, like this:

open -a  /Applications/oxygen/Oxygen.app /path/to/file.xml

To create an alias, use "open -e /Users/your_user_name/.bash_profile" to start editing the .bash_profile file with TextEdit, and then add the line:

alias oxy='open -a  /Applications/oxygen/Oxygen.app '

Make sure you preserve the space after the ".app". You must restart the Terminal application before trying it out.


Cheers,
Dan

Hi,

I am looking for a simple way to open a file in a running oxygen app. have found that I can open a file in a running instance of oxygen like so:

$ /Applications/oxygen/Oxygen.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub /path/to/file.xml

I tried to create a soft link the JavaApplicationStub in my home dir, but the system does not recognize it as a file. Is there some way I can alias the longish path so I can do something like (while in my home dir):

$ oxy /path/to/file.xml

Is there a better/easier way?

thanks for any tips,
-Rob
