Matt, I was wondering if it would be cool to add the horae version to the installer name using some predetermined format). As it stands, it is hard to know how old each release is. The windows installer selfupdates so this shouldn't be a problem, but as the horae_update script is at least for the moment broken, I am trying to release a new mac binary installer every time Bruce comes out with a new version (for people who don't want to bother installing a development environment to compile the latest horae version).
I also have no problem with whatever naming scheme you think is helpful for the Mac. As for the horae_update script -- I am not averse to your relying on it or a similar concept. I just don't want to continue trying to support it. You might, for instance, want to get something of that sort working well on the Mac (perhaps downloading from cars rather than from SourceForge) and have the Ifeffit installer give the user the option of making a cron job (or whatever that's called on the Mac) out of the updater.
