> According to wxWidgets the preferred method is to create a bundle
instead; what does MacPorts prefer?
I don't think I understand the question so I can't directly answer. I am
not a Mac application developer so I don't know how these things are
usually done by developers. If by "bundle" you mean a .app in the
Applications folder which contains the executable and support files, then
yes, that is the preferred method of delivering Mac OS X GUI programs, but
many programs distributed through MacPorts have GUIs that are accessible
via a binary in /opt/local/bin. In cases where that's how the developer
provided the software, the MacPorts portfile will often choose to provide
a wrapper application in /Applications/MacPorts to make it easier to
launch. For an example of this, you can look at our currently first port
alphabetically, 2Pong. The .app generally contains nothing more than a
symlink to the executable in /opt/local/bin. I don't know whether doing
this would be of any assistance to mmg.
