[platypus-dev] Re: problem with command-line tool in 4.0

Hello there,

This is a bug in the command line tool that will be fixed in the next version.  
Although the man page reports it incorrectly, scripts should now be specified 
using the -c argument instead of preceding the name to the app.

Best regards,
Sveinbjorn Thordarson
