I posted under another message how i got the source and tried to get a copy working ex source and how i finally succeeded well Ie now gone one further and created a wee script 1 line of code and it does as mentioned i wanted.
Code is ... /usr/local/bin/shoes -p copy the shell to the desktop and call it 'compile a shoes app' 1 click and the right window appear - No terminals to be seen nothing as before with Shoes2.run even when clicked on (i at least see a terminal window appear and once shoes is closed have to then close the terminal). Again hope this will help others. Dave. Ps _Why perhaps you could add this to the makefile and have it lodged in the same directory thus folks can then copy the files to desktop as i have and it's all done.
