Textual GitHub release Platform

Textual is a highly customizable app for interacting with Internet Relay Chat (IRC) chatrooms on macOS.

Textual can be customized with styles written in CSS, HTML, and JavaScript; plugins written in Objective-C & Swift, and scripts written in AppleScript (plus many other languages)

Precompiled versions of Textual can be purchased in the Mac App Store or directly from Codeux Software.

Note Regarding Downloading Source Code

Textual is dependent on several other projects to build. This repository is automatically linked against these other projects using what are known as "submodules" — Clicking the "Download ZIP" button to build a copy of Textual will not download a copy of these projects. The source code must be cloned using Github for Mac or by using the following commands in Terminal:

git clone https://github.com/Codeux-Software/Textual.git Textual
cd Textual
git submodule update --init --recursive

Note Regarding Code Signing

DO NOT change the Code Signing Identity setting through Xcode. Textual uses a configuration file to specify the code signing identity. This allows it to be used across all projects associated with Textual without having to modify each.

DO edit the file located at Configurations ➜ Build ➜ Code Signing Identity.xcconfig

It is HIGHLY DISCOURAGED to turn off code signing. Certain features rely on the fact that Textual is properly signed and is within a sandboxed environment.

TEXTUAL DOES NOT REQUIRE A CERTIFICATE ISSUED BY APPLE TO BUILD which means there is absolutely no reason to turn code signing off.

Note Regarding Trial Mode

The code which is responsible for licensing paid copies of Textual is in the source code that you download from here.

If you do not have a license key, then set the TEXTUAL_BUILT_WITH_LICENSE_MANAGER flag to 0 in the Standard Release configuration file to disable the inclusion of this code at build time.

Building Textual

The latest version of Textual requires two things to be built. One is a valid (does not need to be issued by Apple) code signing certificate. The second is an installation of Xcode 10.0 or newer on macOS High Sierra. Building on anything earlier is not supported because of Swift 4.2 code.

DO NOT change the Code Signing Identity setting through Xcode. Modify the file located at Configurations ➜ Build ➜ Code Signing Identity.xcconfig instead.

Build Textual using the "Standard Release" build scheme.
