== Open Vplot files with Double Click ==
This actually requires an application. MacOS cannot use shell scripts as applications, and the application also needs to be able to parse arguments (needed for the double click funcionality - the instigating file becomes the first argument). The below steps will turn a simple python script into an Application. First, install [http://pythonhosted.org/py2app/ py2ap] and then follow the below instrictions (that I found on a website of [https://moosystems.com/double-click-on-files-in-finder-to-open-them-in-your-python-and-tk-application/ MooSystems].
