No probs and yes as per Stan's email reply to all means send 1 reply to the mailing list so everyone subscribed to the mailing list will see a copy. Helps others as well that may be having the same problem.
Yes the "\" is an escape character, basically means treat it as a space :-) You have a space in the app name i.e. "Gnucash 4.4-2" as opposed to "Gnucash4.4-2". I think from memory placing double quotes around the complete name also works i.e. "/Applications/Gnucash 4.4-2/Contents/Macos/xxxx" in which case you don't have to escape the space character.
