Bug fixes galore and OSX builds!


Hello dear radicals!

Today I bring a devlog with me, as scavenged while on a walk past my closest recycling station. Let's see what it says:

Your bug reports in the support forum have been heeded! All reported bugs (except one pernicious and baffling one) have been fixed! There are no general cosmetic changes in this update. EXCEPT ONE! The program logo has been revamped by my dear friend Clemens and is now rather sleek.

Assorted linuxians (the proper noun yes?) may also find an example .desktop file in the linux zips, showing how to make the program appear a bit spiffier in your desktop environment.

All builds (except the linux builds) have been uploaded using itch.io's tool butler. This should allow those of you using itch's app to easily download future updates. Why not linux builds? The reason is that butler was zipping my .tar.gz file. and I thought that may be annoying? But if y'all are fine with a .zip instead of .tar.gz I can switch to that for linux, too! Let me know in the forum.

In even more exciting news: Rad Reader is now available for OSX!

The mac builds are slightly chonkier than the others as they are built to run on both amd64 and M1 systems in the single binary. While I have no suitable apple machine to test on, the builds have been tested and confirmed by acquaintances on mastodon to work on the latest OSX systems. Fingers: crossed.

As this is my first foray into cross-compiling for OSX, you may run into Apple's gatekeeper complaining that it's not a valid binary: please check out the zip's associated readme.txt for instructions on how to slyly jump that particular wall.

If the OSX versions prove popular enough, I'll look into paying for and acquiring the golden keys from the orchard gatekeeper
so that life is easier for all y'all on Macs.

...

That's all the devlog says. Anyway, happy reading!
