Hi Andreas, Matthew, John, (Hi All),
I'm getting my house in order, merging the Newspeak VM into the OSCog platforms hierarchy. One big difference between trunk vms (and Newspeak) and Qwaq VMs on Mac OS X is that in the Qwaq VM there is an early chdir to the directory containing the .app, whereas in the non-Qwaq VMs the directory is left as is. If you look at http://squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/trunk/platforms/Mac OS/vm/sqMacMain.c you'll see that this chdir has been commented-out, so there was a point when it was in standard VMs. Andreas, Matthew, do you think the Qwaq behavour is important to preserve? John, what's the history of this? Should I even bother trying to maintain the Qwaq behaviour and instead disable it in all builds (Qwaq, OSCog, Newspeak)?
best, Eliot
