Create an application (hereafter referred to as Sage.app) pointing to https://localhost:8000/ or http://localhost:8000/ I don't know if there is a problem running in non-secure mode on your own machine, but if you run in secure mode there may be an issue in which the Fluid app appears to do nothing. This is probably due to a certificate issue, but if you tell Safari to always accept it, it seems to work ok. Then find Sage.app in the Finder. Ctrl-click and "Show Package Contents" Goto Contents/MacOS. Rename FluidInstance to FluidInstance.bin Create a file called FluidInstance which contains the following script #!/bin/bash #path to sage SAGE_EXE=/Users/gvol/Desktop/sage-2.9.2/sage # check if sage is running on port 8000 curl localhost:8000 > /dev/null 2> /dev/null if [ $? != 52 -o $? != 0 ]; then # start sage if we need to. This could be made to run in non-secure mode etc. $SAGE_EXE -notebook 2>&1 > sage.log & fi # execute the 'real' Fluid application exec $BASH_SOURCE.bin # end script Set the permissions to be executable. I'm not sure how to do this in the Finder, but it can be done from the Terminal by chmod +x /path/to/FluidInstance You can get the path by dragging the file from the Finder to a Terminal window. You will of course have to substitute the path to sage in the script. This is the script that I used, so I know it works, but I think I prefer something a little more like rpmuller used would be preferable. For one thing, I never stop the server (though this is what I prefer). It seems like sometimes, if the server isn't already started, then it opens the window too soon, and can't connect. If it can't connect then it gives up trying ever again until I quit and restart. So it's far from perfect. I would also be willing to put together an all-in-one version that contains the sage tree within Sage.app. This would be extremely simple to create for each new build in an automated way. I also am planning to look into adding an HTML window to Platypus since I think that would be preferable in many ways, and feels less hackish to me.
