Hello Klaus,

I think you can, unless the application bundle is read-only. If this is the
case, then you can still make it writable using chmod in the terminal, or
using a text editor (BBEdit, TextWrangler) that will tell you that the file
is read-only and ask you if you want to make it writable, without messing
with the terminal.

That said, the LiveCode app bundle on macOS used to be read-only. But I
think at some point (probaby when we started to notarize it?) this changed
- not sure if this was intentional or not :)

Kind regards,
Panos
