I was imagining such an extra program or perhaps just a command line switch
that can be triggered via a “shortcut".
We can have xboard relay stuff to the terminal app which is Cocoa based. I
wonder how that would work...
But I fear I am not really a programer. Just a fairly knowledgable tinkerer.
Hence why there isn’t a cocoa version in the first place. Although VO aside
this hasn’t been much of a problem with OSX integration and has made
maintainability much easier. I’m working on learning, but I don’t see getting
to C/C+ for a long time. Harm is really the person to talk to, If he isn’t too
busy. But he doesn’t have a mac.
