Hi Ian/Bert,
etoys.sh has shaped up well as a smart launcher script that can launch squeak binary from any location (e.g. $HOME/.squeak, a mounted volume/share or USB flash memory chip). It can be merged into the unix/src tree.
I propose that we generate the main binary as $bin/squeakvm and install this script (with some minor modifications) as $bin/squeak. This will help us get rid of /usr/local/lib prefix hard-wiring.

This is the script subbu is referring to:
http://svn.squeakland.org/installers/Etoys-To-Go/etoys.sh
But I don't see a compelling reason to include something like this in the VM package itself.
