Simple command-line tool to run Mac executables and, if they turn out to be a GUI app, activate them (bring them to front).
Used by itch to run apps isolated on Mac, because:
open -W Something.appbehaves correctly (correct icon in Dock, app activates naturally) but swallows stdout, and cannot be used in conjunction withsandbox-execsandbox-execrequires path to the actual executable (even if it's within an app bundle), so it won't launch GUI applications properly (wrong icon in Dock + app doesn't activate, ie. window stays in background)
activate fixes one of these — still looking into the icon thing.
Also obeys these commands:
--print-library-paths: print Library paths (like/Users/abc/Library), one per line--print-bundle-executable-path /path/to/Foobar.appprint executable path (like/path/to/Foobar.app/Contents/MacOS/foobar)
