Re: Running MathematicaScript in Mac Terminal

Hi Murta,
the doc is wrong. On my OSX-systems there is no symbolic link in those
directories either.
I assume you have installed Mathematica under /Applications? To make
your script
work, you only have to find where MathematicaScript is located. Open a
terminal and
do the following:
find /Applications -name "MathematicaScript"
This should return the path which you can replace in your script.m. Here
the working
script looks then like
#!/Applications/Develop/Mathematica.app/Contents/MacOS/MathematicaScript-script
Print /@ RandomVariate[MixtureDistribution[
{1,2},
{NormalDistribution[1,2/10],
NormalDistribution[3,1/10]}],
10, WorkingPrecision -> 50]
Cheers
Patrick
