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.
