chatting with peter, two things the mac gui needed were the ability to mount the 'allmydata drive' automatically upon launching the app, and open the Finder to reveal it. (also a request to hide the debug 'open webroot' stuff) this (somewhat rough) patch implements all the above as default behaviour it also contains a quick configuration mechanism for the gui - rather than a preferences gui, running with a more 'tahoe' styled mechanism, the contents of a few optional files can modify the default behaviour, specifically file in ~/.tahoe/gui.conf control behaviour as follows: auto-mount (bool): if set (the default) then the mac app will, upon launch automatically mount the 'tahoe:' alias with the display name 'Allmydata' using a mountpoint of ~/.tahoe/mnt/__auto__ auto-open (bool): if set (the default) then upon mounting a file system (including the auto-mount if set) finder will be opened to the mountpoint of the filesystem, which essentially reveals the newly mounted drive in a Finder window show-webopen (bool): if set (false by default) then the 'open webroot' action will be made available in both the dock and file menus of the app daemon-timout (int): sets the daemon-timeout option passed into tahoe fuse when a filesystem is mounted. this defaults to 5 min files of type (int) much, naturally contain a parsable int representation. files of type (bool) are considered true if their (case-insensitive) contents are any of ['y', 'yes', 'true', 'on', '1'] and considered false otherwise.
