Yes, via the command line with

gnucash

I didn't make a launcher

I'm not trying to do both. I have macports installed on my regular
account but made a new login so I could install jhbuild with no
problems. I just asked because if I can use the macports version, that
will work out better since I won't have to switch login accounts.

Ok. But I guess it's a moot point anyway since the note only applies
to Tiger. So, for now I'll try compiling with macports and see if I
can get python-bindings working that way. Thanks!
