class>>#'default' does not work for Mac/Windows clients
http://code.google.com/p/glassdb/issues/detail?id=70Turns out that this is "expected behavior" for GUI apps on mac ...
the .bashrc (obviously) is not run when launching apps via means other than
the unix command line.
There are however several options for setting environment variables so that
they are visible to GUI apps (like Squeak/Pharo/GemTools) outlined in a
stack overflow article[1].
I tried running:
launchctl setenv PWD /Users/dhenrich
and restarted my GemTools image ... at that point the PWD env var was
accessible....It should be noted that launchctl settings do not survive
reboots.
