I highly recommend these.
William, would you consider having your Frameworks put links in to the
executables in /usr/local/bin ? That might be handy. Or maybe link them
all to one location in /Library/Frameworks, and then put that in the PATH.
For instance, I have:
# Setting PATH for GDAL Current
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/Versions/Current/Programs:${PATH}"
# Setting PATH for MapServer Current
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/MapServer.framework/Versions/Current/Programs:${PATH}"
in my .profile, but it's getting a bit tedious to keep adding each one.
That's one thing I've always liked about *nix -- there are standard
places to put stuff, so I don't need to add a bazillion things to my
PATH, like I did in the DOS days. And symlinks let you have the best of
both worlds!
