[texworks] Two problems with TeXworks 0.4.0 on Mac OSX 10.6.7

[Paul A Norman]

Dear Vafa Khalighi,

Thanks for the heads up on those issues.

I am afraid that that is not looking like an "official" project build, you
can read the full notes at:

http://tug.org/pipermail/texworks/2011q1/003963.html

"I called it "quick" because I don't want to mess up with all the
different SDKs
and universal binaries stuff, but this build should fix most Mac users'
needs."

The history behind it, is that there have been some problems in getting the
MacOs builds to work, and Jiang, has quite well managed to side step the
more troublesome problems for now, just to get something out that will give
general functionality for "*most* Mac user's needs".

So we might expect that there will be some features missing from that
"unoffical" build just now.

Any more gifted Mac developers, with time, out there ..?.. :)

Paul

Full Quote from Jiang:

"Hi,

"I just did a quick Mac OS X 10.6 x86_64 build with:

- TeXworks svn trunk (should be close to 0.4.0, right?)
- Qt 4.7.2 (with other 4.7.x changes since I'm a Qt developer personally)
- poppler 0.16.3
- hunspell-1.2.14
- Other libraries are shipped with Mac OS X

"It's available here for people who wants to
try:https://www.dropbox.com/s/vs9qutjgtwised7/TeXworks.zip

I called it "quick" because I don't want to mess up with all the
different SDKs and universal binaries stuff, but this build should fix
most Mac users'needs.

Cheers,
Jiang
