And, responding to bpa's most recent post, I still think the preferred
location is /usr/local/bin.

It does create its own ptoblems, as we have seen, but I believe it is
worth separating out user-installed items (to go into /usr/local/bin)
and Apple's system installed items which are in /usr/bin.

Logically (I don't know enough about coding to suggest a code) what we
want is something that checks (via app=mplayer) whether mplayer is in
the environment path. If it is, mplayer.sh just continues. If it isn't,
mplayer.sh should try to call mplayer from /usr/local/bin, and if this
also fails it should come up with an error message. The error message
should be more than just "mplayer not found", more like "mplayer not
found. Please check the AlienBBC installation instructions for the
preferred location."
