Port to MacOS? #355

Hi,

With the Mac/MacOS native version of Foobar2000; it would be great if OpenLyrics could be ported to run on the Mac.

Many Thanks

In theory it would be good yes, but I can't do this (at least not any time soon).

I don't own any Mac devices so I have no way of setting up a local build for testing, let alone updating CI to build it as part of the usual release. This would also require significant changes to the code to isolate the Windows-specific calls in a way that can be swapped out for Mac equivalents. That's something I can keep in mind generally while making other changes but ultimately it's going to require the CI system to produce a Mac build.

I also hope that the plugin can be ported to the macos version, the development environment can be built with virtual box, performance should be no problem
