This is an observation about the pre-compiled binaries for Mac OS.
If the (unpacked) sage disk image directory is saved in a folder that has a
space character in its name, for example:
$HOME/Applications/my folder
Then sage will not load properly when the "sage" executable is clicked. The
terminal session begins, but the application doesn't load successfully.
Changing the parent directory name to "my_folder" resolved this issue.
While using space characters in directory names probably isn't all that common
in UNIX or Linux installations, it is more common in Mac OS installations.
Perhaps the installation instructions could be updated to mention this issue?
Thanks,
dan
