Brian,

Just create a symbolic link to the vmd executable.

For example, go to /usr/local/bin and do "ln -s /PATH-TO-VMD.app/
Contents/vmd/vmd_MACOSX86 vmd"
As long as /usr/local/bin is in your default path (it should be) you
can simply execute "vmd" from the terminal using any flag you wish.

Cheers!
-Kevin
