[GNC] macOS Mojave 10.14.3 cannot open GNUCASH

[Chris Tsuji]

   HI,
   I am using Mac os 10.14.3
   After I unstuffed GNUCash, I moved the entire folder, gnucash 3.3 into
   my application folder and then restared my computer.
   After the restart, i went to the application folder and opened the
   gnucash folder and double clicked on the gnucash icon.
   It opened okay and I had no problems.

   I have not tried gnucash 3.4 yet.
   Hope that helps.

   tried moving icon from within Finder window to Dock. didn't work.
   moved Gnucash icon onto desktop.
   clicked icon. still cannot open after 'verification'
   opened Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
   typed in /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash

   'copy any output after that and paste it into a reply.' what does this
   mean?
