In fact, Ivan has built in the ability to choose any Sage executable you want! (See the preferences for the app.) So one can totally just keep the same app and download new executables. But we haven't advertised this since the app version is supposed to be primarily for people who don't know about such things... The size is 3.55 GB, smaller by about 1GB than the official OS X 10.7 app > version. > > I probably just did something wrong in compiling it - it's not "official" in the sense that Volker made it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
