Shoes cannot be run via symlink (say, in ~/bin)

[sjs]

The shoes shell wrapper attempts to run ./shoes-bin, which prevents symlinks to shoes from working. By replacing the first line that sets APPPATH with the following 2 lines one can create themselves a handy symlink in ~/bin, /usr/local/bin, etc. and save themselves excessive typing.

REALPATH=`readlink $0`
APPPATH="${REALPATH%/*}"

[why]

Okay, great, thanks for bringing this up. This is checked into [445].
