There is also a script "redcsl" which must be stored adjacent to reduce.app. A command "redcsl" issued from terminal should open the GUI. If I move it then the Macports Application folder needs to be added to $PATH.

Most (all ?) ports that build an app in Macports move it to the /Applications/Macports/ folder. That’s where users expect to see a regular double clickable application. None of those ports require any $PATH modification. Apps are self contained.
