My suggested naming:
- compiled for macOS 10.10+
- 32-bit ("i386") Macintosh version for OS X 10.7 or later; can load old,
32-bit external libraries
- 64-bit Macintosh version for OS X 10.7 or later
To be (overly) pedantic :) the naming is officially "Mac OS X" from 10.0 -
10.7, "OS X" from 10.8 - 10.11, then macOS 10.12 to now, as least on Wikipedia.
That being said (written?) I find it confusing that OS "X" already stands for
OS 10 since it follows OS 9.
Anyway, I agree with Alex that "macos7" is a misnomer and it would be better as
"macosx107" or something similar as we are all used to "10.7." I can see why
Apple finally bit the bullet and went to macOS 11 as it can get out of this X
cycle.
Note: If/when we have builds linked to newer JACK builds, they will require
macOS 10.12+.
