dev.bat — only works on Windows.

Thing is, the file with similar contents would run fine, but needs a different extension and permissions to be recognized by the OS as a script.

Mac: dev.command, needs to be chmod +x'd Contents Mac:

dir=$(echo "$0" | rev | cut -d "/" -f 2- | rev)
cd "$dir"
./PMDO -dev

Linux: dev.sh, needs to be chmod +x'd Contents Linux: ./PMDO -dev (double check this one because I can't)

Linux has the same problem, and won't work with that oneliner. A more concise script would be this (probably works on macos too so we don't need separate files, please confirm):

#!/usr/bin/env bash

cd "$(dirname "$0")"
./PMDO -dev

The contents of that do work (wow, wish I knew about dirname earlier...), but a few caveats:

1. Bash is not the default shell on macOS; the version bundled in is very old and should not be used. A more robust shebang might be #! /bin/sh to get whatever the default configured POSIX shell is. Mac will also automatically do this if no shebang is provided.
2. Even with identical contents, macOS won't open .sh files in Terminal by default, so the filename still has to end in .command for Mac.
