Description
using osx 10.6 with macports
When I use py2app to make an .app, it generates a file called nicotine. I think it would be better if this deafults to Nicotine+.app
i followed these steps :-
install xcode (download from dev site)
install latest xquartz
install macports
sudo port -v selfupdate
sudo port install py27-gtk
sudo port install gtk-theme-switch
sudo port install gnome-themes
sudo port install subversion
svn checkout http : nicotine-plus.org/svn/trunk/nicotine+ nicotine+
cd nicotine+
/opt/local/bin/switch2 <- set preferred theme for gtk
sudo port install py27-py2ap
set argv_emulation to False in setup.py
python2.7 setup.py py2applet-2.7 -A
set argv_emulation to True in the created .app's .plist file afterwards
Using this py2app method you can update the code and it will still work ok becuase it is just symlinked to ~/.nicotine
copy the .app to applicaionts folder
this way can run nicotine+ via command line -> python2.7 ./nicotine.py
or via a nice .app (which i prefer)
thanks
