Update: now I see the difference. When running via lldb:
lijon-mbp:Applications lijon$ cd KiCad\ 5.99/
lijon-mbp:KiCad 5.99 lijon$ lldb kicad.app
(lldb) target create "kicad.app"
Current executable set to 'kicad.app' (x86_64).
(lldb) run
It does not find the cm files:
Error on line 0 :
a$poly$e.xu1.x1.egnd %vd [ +12v 0 -12v 0 ] %vd ( xu1.x1.99 0 )
a$poly$e.xu1.x1.egnd
MIF-ERROR - unable to find definition of model a$poly$e.xu1.x1.egnd
Warning: Model issue on line 0 :
.model a$poly$e.xu1.x1.egnd spice2poly coef = [ 0 .5 .5 ] ...
Unknown model type spice2poly - ignored
...
Running it like this from the commandline works though:
lijon-mbp:Applications lijon$ cd KiCad\ 5.99/
lijon-mbp:KiCad 5.99 lijon$ open kicad.app
But not like this (can't find cm files):
lijon-mbp:KiCad 5.99 lijon$ cd kicad.app
lijon-mbp:kicad.app lijon$ Contents/MacOS/kicad
Unless I rename the folder to "KiCad" only, then it works:
lijon-mbp:Applications lijon$ cd KiCad
lijon-mbp:KiCad lijon$ cd kicad.app/
lijon-mbp:kicad.app lijon$ Contents/MacOS/kicad
So, there's definitely some room for improvement here.
