I can't open it. Going inside package dnd to terminal (not sure which to choose):
/Applications/MuWire.app/Contents/MacOS/muwire-mac.sh: line 6: jre/bin/java: cannot execute binary file

/Applications/MuWire.app/Contents/MacOS/MuWire.jar
-bash: /Applications/MuWire.app/Contents/MacOS/MuWire.jar: Permission denied

Note: I'm on os10.11. A limitation of my hardware-firmware re: upgrading.

I presume this is the file size? That seems a particularly large allowance for comments; potentially over a thousand words. On one hand it's great commentaries can be large but somehow it looks like it could become short story length.

Good to hear.

Any possibility of shifting to self-updating options in the future? I don't know what process the average 3rd party MacOS app uses but I suspect it's based on Sparkle. By self-updating I'm not referring to updating without the owner's permission (not sure that's even officially allowed on MacOS) but giving notification of an update with an update info window and then once selected it auto updates and restarts. It can be such a clean process and many (most of mine) 3rd party Macos apps use this process.

Launcher version 1.0 was a little meaningless. The About Launcher window simply showed Java version 1.0


I had noticed it's possible to dnd from iTunes directly to MW. One occasion I noticed after removing the files so I could rename them (the physical files), I was unable to re-add them via the same dnd process with iTunes. Possibly because iTunes had not yet updated its references. So now I wait until the files have been renamed before adding either via iTunes or direct dnd from a folder.

I thought for music it might be best to rename the file starting with the artist, album and song title in that order. It's sort of based on the method used by priv torrent sites for torrent titles.
