Starting on the Mac

I've downloaded squeak on my Macbook Pro (OS-X). When I launch the .app, the menu says "Squeak VM" and a file dialog box opens. What is it asking for? Where's the Squeak desktop? There is nothing useful on the Squeak VM menu.

It's asking for the image. There should be a file like: Squeak3.9-final-7067.image in your folder. Select it and it should be fine.

And, of course, you can just double-click on any .image file. That
will launch Squeak VM to open the image.
