Summary0000307: missing Mod search path in OS X build
DescriptionMac OS X 10.6, FreeCAD 3578

`sys.path` in FreeCAD's python shell is missing the Mod directory search path, mentioned here:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/free-cad/index.php?title=Installing_more_workbenches
Additional InformationUsually in Mac OS X, applications store such files in the user's 'Application Support' directory; e.g.:
~/Library/Application Support/FreeCAD/Mod

or at least:
~/.FreeCAD/Mod

Should be fixable with a simple:

    sys.path.append(os.path.expanduser('~/Library/Application Support/FreeCAD/Mod'))

This works interactively, but it would be nice not to have to type it every time I start FreeCAD ;)
