Yes, Ingolf/Max are right in the sense that TeXmacs works "fine",
except that no advantage is taken out of the higher resolution.
In principle, TeXmacs is able to work with fonts at higher resolution,
and arbitrary size icons (by the way, I just committed the SVG versions
of the new set of TeXmacs icons, which one should use in this case).
So there is no real obstacle on our side.
It rather seems to on the Qt/X11 side that there is a problem,
because 1 pixel is no longer 1 pixel on a retina screen (some kind of
automatic zooming is applied). It is not clear to me how to modify
the renderers so as to work on Retina screens. Please investigate
the available APIs; as soon as I understand what should be done,
I can help to do the necessary things.
Best wishes, --Joris
