Description
Hello! I'm a new CHIRP user, but can't get the GUI to run. I installed the KK7DS runtime, which went fine, then ran the 0.2.3. It starts up, but no window is displayed nor can be obtained.
I also tried the newest daily (20121116), same issue. Running in the terminal (so I can see startup STDOUT/STDERR) produces the following:
Cortana:Desktop ussjoin$ /Applications/chirp-daily-20121116.app/Contents/MacOS/chirp
ln: /Applications/chirp-daily-20121116.app/Contents/MacOS/../CHIRP: File exists

Um... never mind. Apparently, whatever GUI toolkit (GTK?) you're using decided that it should throw a teensy little box up at the upper-left corner of the universe, rather than the current screen. Since I have a 6-monitor display (2 high, 3 wide), this meant it wasn't visible (as it blended in with the window below it).
So I'd fix that-- error dialogs should be in the center, not the upper-left, of the universe-- but it's not a showstopper bug, as I previously thought. Sorry.
