Vanilla Dwarf Fortress Launcher
v0.8 beta

DOWNLOAD

This is a simple launcher application written in Java Swing and runnable on Windows, Mac or Linux. This is the launcher I've always wanted to have, something which manages the installation and prevents DF folder clutter around releases, but there is no mod or graphics pack support (try the other, much better launchers for those features).

• Edit common startup options
• Set font and tileset easily
• Automatically download a new install or update to the latest version
• Check out the devlog before you play

BEFORE RELEASE - So far I have been able to test on Linux, a bit on Windows but not at all on Mac.  In particular, I'd very much appreciate it if someone could tell me...
a) What is the console command to run dwarfort.exe on the Mac from the DF directory (I know nothing of Mac cli )
b) Does a Mac install require you to set run-permissions before you can run DF (like Debian)?  If so, what files?
Also, I need to iron out some bugs and do some proper error handling.  Might be a couple or more days yet.
