Hi

Does anyone recall how you launch the Lin Client several times at once? I belive to recall it was done over the Terminal - any idea?

Yep, copy the directory and re-name it - then you can Launch a second instance.

I normally have 2 or 3 going ^_^

Usefull when working with several accounts. For instance a trader on a own account.

I refound the method. For Applescript it was:
do shell script "/Applications/Games/Lineage.app/Contents/MacOS/Lin > /dev/null 2>&1 &"

You don't even need to use AppleScript.

Simply go into /Applications.../Lineage.app/Contents/MacOS/

Make an alias of "Lin" from the that MacOS directory and put it on your desktop. You can then just double click this alias to launch a new instance of Lineage.

Same thing I do. Quick and easy and reusable. I have 3 instances of 'Lin' on my Dock for launching multiple clients real fast. Any more than 3 clients and my computer just gets to bogged down.
