Subject: have mac app write a tahoe upon startup
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/components/com_hotproperty/%22doc.html/architecture.txt?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d5abc68060010dd0a5e2e1c6caa8c3d94da7e69f;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

have mac app write a tahoe upon startup

upon startup, the .app will look in '/usr/local/bin', '~/bin', '~/Library/bin'
if it finds one of these dirs, and can write into it, and there isn't already
a 'tahoe' present, it will write a small bach script which will launch the
binary contained within the .app bundle

this allows the .app bundle to offer the services of the 'tahoe' script
easily and simply
