I followed the instructions on the site to set up the program, then created the boincscript.command.

Since doing this, however, the terminal program will not execute without running Boinc! If I try to open a new window, it executes boinc again. Here's where it gets strange:

I put the following into the script:
cd /boinc
./boinc_client -allow_remote_gui_rpc -return_results_immediately
However, what's being executed on any attempt to run terminal is this:

/boinc/boincscript.command; exit


If I try to terminate the process, it just closes the terminal window, and will not allow me to access my command line!

Help!
