Hmm- haven't tested in OSX. Has never worked for me in Windows. First tried on 2010x86 and now on 2011x64, Win7. At first, I thought it was the problem was that I had the mel in the wrong scripts folder, eg. ~\maya\2011-x64\scripts, instead of ~\maya\scripts. However, have tested either way with the same result. And on different machines with their own install of maya.
When I add the command to the userSetup.mel at the bottom of the list, nothing happens. If I add it to the first line, Maya will abort the launch just when it gets to the main window.
Curiously, it works fine if I just add the whole script to a shelf button. Click it to add the command to the file menu and then clcik revert to get the result.
Let me know if any other info would be helpful.
