 <title>Creating XULRunner app bundles for Mac OS X</title>
 <link>http://www.developerfriendly.com/node/11</link>
 <description>I have started writing a tutorial for the MDC XULRunner documentation and it will be my first significant Mozpad contribution.

I have only written a short introduction so far but I thought I would shoot this link to the moon: &lt;a href=&quot;http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner:Creating_custom_app_bundles_for_Mac_OS_X&quot;&gt;XULRunner:Creating custom app bundles for Mac OS X&lt;/a&gt;.

I would also invite anyone who has experience with this topic to add to the tutorial or at least double-check my work for correctness. I have not written the document yet but it will be based on my &lt;a href=&quot;/node/9&quot;&gt;recent experiment&lt;/a&gt; with WebRunner and my previous experience with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.psyc.us/taxonomy/term/42&quot;&gt;CocoaPSYC.app&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;strong&gt;Update:&lt;/strong&gt; I have published some work related to this project on &lt;a href=&quot;http://code.google.com/p/developerfriendly/wiki/WebRunner&quot;&gt;google code&lt;/a&gt;. Feel free to grab updates from the svn repository or even contact me if you would like to contribute to that project.</description>

 <title>WebRunner 0.3 packaged as a Mac OS X App Bundle</title>
 <link>http://www.developerfriendly.com/node/9</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;				Tonight I threw together a Mac OS X package based on Mark Finkle&#039;s &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://starkravingfinkle.org/blog/2007/03/site-specific-browser-using-webrunner/&quot;&gt;WebRunner&lt;/a&gt;&quot; code (Version 0.3.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everything looks good on my G4 PowerMac but I don&#039;t have any other environment to test this with. I believe that it requires &lt;strike&gt;XULRunner 1.8.1.3&lt;/strike&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/nightly/latest-trunk/xulrunner-1.9a7pre.en-US.mac-pkg.dmg&quot;&gt;XULRunner 1.9a7pre&lt;/a&gt; to be installed in the default location (/Library/Frameworks/XUL.Framework/) though another version might work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would appreciate any feedback on this as I have minimal experience with MacOS packaging. I intend to use this experience as the basis for a tutorial on &lt;a href=&quot;http://developer.mozilla.org&quot;&gt;MDC&lt;/a&gt; and the finished app bundle will make a nice example for other developers to learn from.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you manage to test this please let me know whether it worked along with the versions of XULRunner and OS X that you tested. Thanks in advance for any feedback you can provide.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update:&lt;/strong&gt; I created an icon that you might like to use for webrunner, however, I can imagine using several instances of webrunner for several different webapps. In that case it would be really cool if there were a way to generate a custom version of the icon for each unique webrunner application. More on this idea later.....
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2:&lt;/strong&gt; I am writing up an article with details of how this was done. You can read what I have so far over &lt;a href=&quot;http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner:Creating_custom_app_bundles_for_Mac_OS_X&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; on the Mozilla Developer Center wiki.
&lt;!--break--&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 3:&lt;/strong&gt; New version: &lt;a href=&quot;/WebRunnerX&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
