Oh yeah I forgot that I had written some 7-only code. It's a shame it's causing problems for OS X.

@Subjunk, can you send us the sources of 2.4.2?
I think it would be easier to us to find the changes if we can analyze it.
Thanks.

EDIT: Ooops!! Don't mind. I found it on Github, sorry!

Well... I found harder to get it working on java 1.6+ than Java 1.7: More code to be done on all the dependencies.
Also I found some clues in why it doesn't work under 1.7 in Mac OS X.
When packing the app, the script gets and insert the code in the startup plist to run in 1.6+.
We are building it to 1.7 so I tried to change the VM from 1.6+ to 1.7 in the plist, but Apple's native Java resources are based on 1.6.0_43-b01-447. On launch it says that could not find Java 1.7 on this machine.
I changed the home of the VM from it's defaults System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home to the path of the Oracle´s 1.7 /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_17.jdk/Contents/Home
It doesn't work, so I guess the Java machine is not detected by the system. As the jar was builded to 1.7 it's logical to assume that no success will happen.

I think the fastest approach could be to have 1.7 as native by Apple. But I am only a graphic designer with some skills in Javascript. Java is too far from my knowledge. I'm trying to learn a little bit, but you could be on version 3.9 when I get 2.5.2 to work.

I hope that somebody can make it work before I!!

Good luck!

OK I will fix the OS X problem soon

OK I made a new branch called "OSX" that should allow you to build for OS X again, please try it and let me know

Yesssssssss!!!!!
2.5.3 is working!! No DMG was created. Do you need me to create it manually?
Where do I upload it?
Thank you very much, subjunk!!

Yay I just updated the code in the OSX branch a bit so it should be 2.5.2 now (which is the latest non Windows-only release), please build from the latest and yes a dmg would be great You could upload it to Dropbox or something
