Launching Geoserver on a Mac

[Dane Springmeyer]

Hello,

I just wrote a "droplet" that makes launching Geoserver on a  
macintosh a bit easier, particularly for users that are not experts  
in unix commands.

Just unzip the droplet anywhere on your machine and then drop the  
folder which contains your geoserver install onto the droplet, which  
will set the right environment settings, run the provided unix bin/
startup.sh script, and then open Geoserver in Mozilla Firefox. Both  
the droplet and your geoserver install can be placed in any directory  
on your machine.

Anyone interested can download the zipped "droplet" here:

Cheers,

Dane

Hey thanks, this sounds like a neat contribution.
Wondering if we could make the droplet be part of the standard
gs-bin.zip distribution.
Chris, you're on a Mac these days. Would it make sense?

Cheers
Andrea
