Bug: `goneovim.app` does not work (macOS) #417

Closed chrisgrieser closed 1 year ago

chrisgrieser commented 1 year ago

Opening the goneovim.app does not work on Mac. The result is an empty window, which does not respond to any keystrokes.

When trying to open a file via "Open With", goneovim opens up, but immediately closes afterwards.

However, using the goneovim in the terminal does work correctly. Opening /Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim from the terminal does work, too.

- macOS 12.5.1 (M1)
- neovim 0.8.0
- goneovim 0.6.3

tried with default settings (no settings.toml)

Hi :) Hmmm, it seems that on your machine, when the shell specified by $SHELL runs as a login shell, the neovim process is not being started with the name nvim because the PATH is not set up well enough. I think you need to add the location of the nvim file to your PATH, for example, to .bash_profile for bash or zprofile for zsh.
