Good to know -- thanks.

Ah, that explains why you were asked to give Glu permission to access Documents.
When Glu starts up it runs glu-1.0-mac/Scripts/startup.lua, so by installing Glu inside
Documents it *is* accessing a file inside it. (Most people install apps in /Applications
or ~/Downloads which is why I've never come across that problem before.)
