@_why,
what is the process of doing this on the mac?
1. use tar gzip to combine shoes & the script
2. make the archive self-extracting
3. have a auto run bash script to run shoes
4. delete all files extracted upon closure of shoes.
me thinking as a noob that if it can be done on a mac then it wouldn't be too
hard to copy it the process to linux (me says with no knowledge).
