Historically :)

Well, mac os using nice .app directory convention. So, in a single
directory you having an application
and all its resources nicely encasulated.
I could of course put it to results, so, it will create
results/appName.app/
subdir, but that makes not much sense.

directory you having an application
and all its resources nicely encasulated.
I could of course put it to results, so, it will create
results/appName.app/
subdir, but that makes not much sense.

In fact, that makes sense for me :)
because that way you always know where to go to search for the compiled VM. And even more you don't confuse /build with its results.

difficult?
just start typing 'cd r' <tab> in console and you there :)

and if you using finder.. then yes you can be lost.

But anyways, if you think it would be better , then let it be like you
did. I don't really care.
