[MacRuby-devel] Distributing apps with MacRuby.framework

[Laurent Sansonetti]

Dr Nic,

FYI, if you use trunk, there is an Xcode target that calls  
install_name_tool for you. You still have to hack your rb_main.rb file  
to change $LOAD_PATH, though. In the case of a HotCocoa application,  
everything is done for you once you do "macrake deploy".
