Dear Edward and everybody else, 

sorry for responding so late. Opening the app works flawlessly for me on Lion, 
there are no apparent errors when clicking around but I didn't have time to 
test anything else. 

I will test the command-line portion with the test suite data, but I can't say 
when I will have time.

Cheers
Martin
