Anyone with a real, clean Mac up for posting compiled binaries?
Preferably compile with "make profile=balanced" In fact, I'd like it if
someone were willing to host a "higan for Mac" page, with binaries of
each of the latest releases. Only really needed for major official
releases, but it'd be preferable to have the builds updated as soon as
possible after I post new builds.
Changelog:
- no more keyboard chimes when pressing keys
- status bar added, fully functional
- Label::minimumSize() takes frame into account (but note a few places
hard-code raw Font::size(), so a few text labels are still clipped)
- resizing the main window looks smooth regardless of whether a game is
running or not
- currently, resizing the window pauses the emulation. Allowing it to
run the main loop was lagging out the window resize process too much
to be worth it
Additional OS X integration enhancements:
- closing the main window unloads the current game, but does not quit
the application (quit via the main menu or the dock menu)
- clicking the icon in the dock will (re)display the main menu

This release adds the phoenix/Cocoa port, and rewrites a lot of the
higan user interface to work with all of the new changes (like blocking
in the main run loop and in modal windows.)
It doesn't yet modify the compilation flags to actually build on OS
X yet, and even then, we don't really have ruby drivers, so there'd be
no video, audio or input.
Two months between a single WIP point release ... for the first six
years, I never went more than a month without a full official release.
I guess I should be happy that it's become so refined, but I sure do
miss those halcyon days of exciting progress.

Basically just a project rename, with s/bsnes/higan and the new icon
from lowkee added in.
It won't compile on Windows because I forgot to update the resource.rc
file, and a path transform command isn't working on Windows.
It was really just meant as a starting point, so that v091 WIPs can flow
starting from .00 with the new name (it overshadows bsnes v091, so
publicly speaking this "shouldn't exist" and will probably be deleted
from Google Code when v092 is ready.)
