#!/bin/csh -f # Note: Do not use $*:q instead of $* For some reason that causes the # shell to wait for tb to finish before regaining control, even # when invoked with no parameters. # Huh? No longer true after a Mac software update. Now it always # waits? Why? Related to the fact the re-boot of the update deleted # the /Volumes/Thunderbird install folder? # No. It's erratic. Sometimes waits, sometimes doesn't. Seems to # run in streaks. Why? Not related to whether I've closed TBird # completely, via Cmd-Q. # Note: Use >& /dev/null to suppress all console output since TB writes # lots of errors and warnings to stdout/stderr, but nothing useful. # Most users launch it by clicking an icon anyhow, and never even # have a chance to see stdout or stderr. echo Suppressing TBird console output to hide spurious errors/warnings... /Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/thunderbird-bin $*:q >& /dev/null
