Jim accidently sent this to me privately instead of to the list. He
confirmed this in further private email. (I normally don't like copying

Subject: Re: [GTALUG] Command doesn't work in script but works on command line?
I am running the script by double clicking on it after making it executable and
setting scripts to run this way via nautilus. All the other scripts I wrote run
fine this way. I tried running the script from the command line and that does
work. So it is only not running correctly when activated by the mouse? Still a
mystery.
