Comment:

 Has duplicates #33130 and #33234. So, the problem is you were using the
 Pallet Beta from wiki:MacPortsGUI#Download instead of the newer one in
 MacPorts? I don't see why we still have that old version up there if it
 doesn't work. I'll delete it now. For those of you who have not already
 done so, please uninstall the Pallet you previously installed and run
 `sudo port install Pallet` instead.

 > Why is it obvious, given other GUI applications can be launched via the
 Terminal

 It is not normal to attempt to launch Mac OS X GUI applications from the
 Terminal. X11 applications perhaps, but Pallet is not an X11 application.
 You cannot type "`safari`" to open Safari; you cannot type "`preview`" to
 open Preview. You ''can'' type "`open -a Safari`" or "`open -a Preview`",
 and similarly you can use "`open -a Pallet`" if you prefer that to double-
 clicking it in the Finder.
