Up to a point, it's straightforward, in that a .app is basically a
collection of resources in defined positions. For example, you can
get a disk image of a Gsharp application (for powerpc: will not run
under Apple's emulation) at
<http://doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas01cr/tmp/Gsharp20070808.dmg>
where the only interesting bits in terms of the bundling into a .app
./Gsharp.app/Contents/Info.plist
./Gsharp.app/Contents/MacOS/gsharp
./Gsharp.app/Contents/Resources/gsharp.icns
Of course, since gsharp (or rather the CLX McCLIM backend) doesn't use
the Apple frameworks, it doesn't truly behave like an OS X
application: you don't get menus at the top of the screen; it doesn't
gain a little triangle in the dock when it's running; and so on.
For best results, launch X11.app before launching gsharp.
Best,
Christophe
