- Hi Jon,
-
- You may be able to do what you want by using a shell script. If you
- run Executor from a command line and give it an argument of a Mac
- executable, it should fire that executable up when it's initialized.
- A future version of Executor will allow you to specify a browser that
- will be started up by default. I'll make sure you can juke it so that
- you start up Quicken instead of the browser.
