Re: [Summary-Talk] launching summary from command line



The GUI version of Summary requires that someone be logged in on the
display/console in order to run. As long as someone is logged in, you
can launch Summary from ssh by switching to the Summary directory and
giving the command "open ./Summary\ 2.5.4" (use the actual name of the
Summary application on your machine, which might be different).

If you are already familiar with ssh, it might be simpler to use the
command line version of Summary. That version does not require that
anyone be logged in.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
