This is work in progress.

Getting a native gtk

A lot of information can be found here: http://gtk-osx.sourceforge.net/

follow the instructions to get the gtk core up and running

jhbuild configuration

a jhbuild section for bluefish looks like this: 

<repository type="tarball" name="bluefish" href="http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/source/"/>
<autotools id="bluefish">
<branch module="bluefish-2.0.0.tar.bz2" version="2.0.0" repo="bluefish" md5="ac9b1e8ef6d5691718a0daa6c78d5618" size="3287346"/>
<dependencies>
<dep package="intltool"/>
<dep package="gtk+"/>
<dep package="glib"/>
<dep package="libxml2"/>
</dependencies>
<suggests>
<dep package="enchant"/>
<dep package="gucharmap"/>
</suggests>
</autotools>

or a section for SVN: 

<repository type="svn" name="bluefish-svn" default="yes" href="https://bluefish.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/" />
<autotools id="bluefish-svn" autogen-sh="./configure" autogenargs="--disable-nls" >
<branch repo="bluefish-svn" module="bluefish/trunk/bluefish"/>
<dependencies>
<dep package="intltool"/>
<dep package="gtk+"/>
<dep package="glib"/>
<dep package="libxml2"/>
<dep package="ige-mac-integration"/>
</dependencies>
<suggests>
<dep package="enchant"/>
<dep package="gucharmap"/>
</suggests>
</autotools>

this section will fail the first time, choose 4 (enter shell), run 

./autogen.sh

exit and choose 1 (rerun configure)

Building

pcre.h is missing on OSX, but libpcre is available. You can copy the pcre.h file from a different computer to ~/gtk/inst/include/pcre.h

Creating a package

todo

Better MacOSX integration

in SVN is an initial start. The menubar is now properly integrated in the OSX menu.

what needs to be done:

  • open from the Finder
  • detect filetypes properly (doesn't work for some reason)
  • proper icon
