I ported one of our Unix X11 applications to native Mac using Qt which
is nice since it looks so cool. Most of our apps are still X11,
however and I would like to distribute all of these as a single bundle.
All of our applications are very dependent on an environment variable
being set. What is the preferred Mac way to do this?
I found out how to set an environment variable by editing a file called
environment.plist in a hidden directory called .MacOSX, but that's only
useful for us tech heads since we can edit a file and be on our way.
Is there a Mac way to set a variable in a "registry" that I can use
across our native and/or X11 applications? Or maybe a command line
program I can run which sets this variable rather than hacking around
an XML file?
Also, is there an easy way to bundle X11 and native applications
together? Our software is like an office suite made up of several
applications.
Thanks for any insight!
Joey
