Comment(by cscott):

 My original version also didn't work when launched a second time (neither
 does Scratch-6.es.xo).  I fixed that bug, fixed the bug where scratch-
 wrapper was non-executable, fixed the bug where I wasn't passing along
 arguments to scratch-activity, and set HOME to $SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data
 so that the 'Documents' and 'Desktop' buttons in the file dialog work
 nicer.  I released the result as Scratch-6.xo on the wiki Activities page,
 and at http://dev.laptop.org/~cscott/bundles/Scratch-6.xo

 I think Erik had to manually set 'Language=es' in Scratch.ini in order to
 get the scratch interface to show up in Spanish.  I'd like to make that
 dynamic based on $LANG, but I haven't quite grokked Scratch well enough
 yet.
