I thought that I would post a general progress report on building ZC on OSX:
I have my Mac Pro set up now, and running with all of the needed utilities.
I have XCode 3.2.6 set up, plus CMake, Git, Code::Blocks, Lazarus (FPC), and some related tools.
I have built ZLaunch for OSX, and I worked out the major issues. One notable problem is that the ZC/ZQuest config files are stored in the application bundles; but these should now be accessible via some pathing tricks; however, spaces in path names are still a problem.
In my limited environment, ZCL launches ZC and ZQuest properly.
More will follow as I am able to make progress. I may release ZCL for Zelda Classic 2.,50,2, in the interim.
I noticed that I cannot run ZQuest while ZC is open; and that I cannot launch ZC while ZQuest is open. Is that normal?
Have all of you been suffering with this, unspoken, for years?!
I'm unsure why this is true, but it could be because of how the .cfg files are stored inb the application bundles; that they are locked while one is open, and the other cannot access the config files or it could be an access limitation on the libs.
