Hello,

I don't know if maybe i'm doing something wrong, or if there's a problem, but I'm on a mac el capitan 10.11.6 and I'm getting these weird errors when I try to start chimera in nogui mode. 

I usually set various tools to auto-start once I start chimera, but recently I was messing around and added a few, and now I'm getting these errors when i start chimera via --nogui.  Problem is, I don't know which one is causing the seg fault, but I feel like it shouldn't be calling these gui options with the nogui options on anyway.  Once I started getting these errors I went to Favorites->add to favorites/toolbar->reset & save, and now I don't get the segfault. I do get a few other errors if I adda few back to the auto start / on toolbar options.

chimera production version 1.11 (build 41179) 2016-07-15 05:43:21 UTC

should I be adding a different flag or something when I start chimera via nogui?

Thanks,
