only one quick followup question: I originally wanted to launch the program through an applescript: tell application "Terminal" do script "/opt/local/bin/wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Programme/TmNationsForever/TmForeverLauncher.exe" end tell with the result that it didnt work (the program started, but did not work properly, probably because of the wrong WorkingDir?) Manual solution would be to provide a terminal window with this: cd $HOME/.wine/drive_c/Programme/TmNationsForever wine TmForeverLauncher.exe Is there a way to do this through applescript? Thanks in advance! Best, testifix
