Mac version sequences #272

Open AllinCottrell opened 3 years ago

For those of use who are not native Mac guys it can be confusing to navigate the three sets of Mac version numbers: OS version, Xcode version and Darwin version. All the required info is on Wikipedia but it's not collated. So I made a little version reckoner as a CSV file (attached as xls, since CSV is not accepted mac_versioning.xls ). I don't know if it would be worth adding to osxcross, but if so you're welcome to use it.

surprised that csv is rejected (and even more surprised that xls is accepted - it is usually the other way round). github takes zip files though, but I am not sure if it scans a zip file's content.

it is likely to bit-rot if included, so I think it is probably best to have a wikipedia URL included somewhere (and hope that the page does not get renamed / moved /edited too much).

@HinTak Point taken about bit-rot, but you need three wikipedia URLs to assemble the information in my file.
