No Menu Bar on OSX

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Animata doesn't have a menu bar on OSX. This prevents quickly changing
between Animata and other applications with pressing cmd+tab. Also prevents
quitting with the default keyboard command cmd+Q

Revision 16 of Animata from the SVN.
Mac OSX 10.5.5

i think this is because fltk has a different menu system from osx. you need to 
make
an application if you want an osx menu bar on the top of the screen, but it 
does not
have any real functions. try running scons --app to make an application.

hmm. I tried that, but got an error.

scons: Reading SConscript files ...
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list:

it works with the normal scons command and finds the library just fine.

do you mean that the current scons file does not compile animata? strange. 
could you
please attach your config.log file? thanks.

thanks. it seems that you don't have the libpng static library at
/opt/local/lib/libpng.a. did you install fltk, libpng, libjpeg from macports or 
from
source? if you install them from macports the libraries should be at 
/opt/local/lib.

Ok. Now it works. I had problems updating my scons version to 0.98 and somehow 
messed
up my fltk installation in the process. I installed fltk from macports again 
and now
it works perfectly.

Thanks a lot!

Quitting is still not working with cmd+Q, but that's not a big deal since ctrl 
+ Q works.

cmd + tab switching between applications works with the app build, which is more
important for me.
