As for installing it, I think all you have to do is use the "Sage Advanced" 
under the "Terminal Session" menu and type/paste in 

-f http://www.uwosh.edu/faculty_staff/gutow/Jmol_for_SageNoteBook-1.1.4.spkg

and hit enter.  That's based on my reading of the other thread (I haven't done 
it) so it may be incorrect.

Well if the Terminal is easier then that's what you should use.  I know I do a 
lot :-)  I also use sage from within Emacs and I use the app.  Perhaps I have 
multiple personalities :-)

I was thinking though.  Perhaps there should be an option to start a new shell 
when you start the application (and/or click on it in the dock if there isn't 
one already started—like iTerm2 and Terminal do).  It would be nicer once 
iTerm2 is embeddable, but I think I might be able to get an applescript to 
approximate that behavior even now.
