Are you going to add the command line interface to the MACOS binaries?

Asked by Paaguti-hotmail

I'm using MAC and LINUX for my PHD and would like to have the same command-line interface and capabilities in both OSes, please.

You can install the linux-style command line version of Inkscape yourself using MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/>.

The Inkscape binary included in the relocatable Mac OS X application bundle you may have downloaded from sourceforge does not provide the exactly the same interface as on linux, but - if you accept to use wrapper scripts and full pathnames for the files used as command line arguments - you can get quite close to how you would use it on linux.
