This is probably reasonable, unless you can think of a better way. > This works fine, but I cannot figure out how to put all the files > inside the bundle to allow for mac friendy installation.

This is harder, there have been many discussions on wx-users about whether wxWidgets should have a function to get the app's path, but I think the answer has always been to not have it. The problem is that Unix doesn't give you it in argv[0] as MS Windows does. If you're lucky OSX does give it to you and you can use the args that wxLuaFreeze pushes into Lua, see the top of unittest.wx.lua. Note that C args are negative and Lua args are positive so that the positive ones match what the Lua executable does.
