The problem with the program not accepting any input is a
"bug/feature" of OSX. This happens when you try to directly run an
executable. You need to run a program as a "bundle" with a specific
directory structure and a few extra files to help the OS do the right
thing.
Apparently there is some code you can stick into a programs
initialization to get around the need for the directory structure of
the bundle. I will look into that.
I can't test now, but on the command line I believe that you can run a
bundle (actually a directory) using the "open" command. I wonder if
that allows for command line args?
Hopefully Anders can shed some light on this.
