 In os x there is an option in Info.plist that allows the app to run in the
 background w/o menus.  its called the LSUIElement.

 On both tiger (PPC) and snow leopard (INTEL) vidalia 0.2.1.5 has this
 value as true (1), it *should* be false.  when you open vidalia on a
 standalone basis you don't see the menus or its presence in the dock.   I
 guess this has something to do with how it should be set when running from
 the one size fits all bundle.  but for those of use who run vidalia as a
 separate "i want to touch it and play with it' app its wrong.

 the fix is obvious, right click on vidalia and select show contents, then
 nav to Contents---Info.plist, find the LSUIElement near the bottom and
 change its value to 0.

 i also reclassified this property as a number (which i think is the proper
 form, its currently as a string but honestly i'm not a real programmer
 guy)

 the fix is to right click on vidalia 02.1.15
