build macOS .app bundles

Colin Macdonald requested to merge mac_dot_app into master

pyinstaller --windowed is all it takes to make a .app bundle on macOS!

TODO

  • learn enough about pyinstaller to figure how to to incorporate that into the .spec
    • needed a new bundle section
  • .app bundle is inside the artifacts.zip
  • the .app dir seems to contain the same .bin as before: maybe we don't need both.
  • test 11 on macOS 11
  • test 10.13 on macOS 11
  • .app is a directory. how is one supposed to distribute it? Inside a zip? What is a .dmg file?
  • changelog entry
