Then, in the terminal that opens, type in '/sw/bin/scribus &'; OR menu: Applications/Customize... and edit one of the blank lines with Name: Scribus, Command: /sw/bin/scribus
Better, yet, he can get AquaScribus and open scribus the "Mac way". Go to http://www.wordtech-software.com/aquascribus.html and download the launcher. This will first launch X11 and then Scribus. It will also associate scribus files with the launcher so double-clicking a .sla file will launch and open in Scribus. -- __ Faster than a speeding slug! I'm Paraplegic Racehorse.
