macOS build #31

Hi,

I recently tried to build the git HEAD of edbrowse on macOS. The recent js libs appear to be unavailable. Is there any guidance for getting it to build? I can probably just go back to a much older release, but thought I'd check here first.

Thanks!

Hi, You can build the JS library yourself. It is just a single C file and a couple of headers. I don't know what you'll need to do to make the library visible to cmake on MacOSX. If everything's in the right place, it should just build, but I don't have access to MacOS anymore, so I can't really test that. Anyway, the duktape site is http://duktape.org/, and here's a direct link: http://duktape.org/duktape-2.1.1.tar.xz

Someone really needs to update the version of edbrowse in MacPorts. I need to reach out to the current maintainer, assuming they're still active.

The previous maintainer was removed due to inactivity and I've taken over maintenance of edbrowse in MacPorts and updated it to 3.8.2.1.
