There is some preliminary documentation on how to build a .app bundle on=20
our wiki.
http://cinepaint.bigasterisk.com/BuildingGTKApplications

Another alternative to moving to the .app structure, or the undocumented=20
function calls, is to create a "dummy" resource fork for your=20
executables and plugins, once they've been built and installed.  This is=20
similar to what the FLTK project has done (http://www.fltk.org).

1) Create or find a simple .r file, (fltk has a good generic one for=20
it's mac projects, [it's just a text file])
Here's the contents of the fltk mac.r file:


data 'MBAR' (128) {
    $"0001 0080"                                          /* ...=C3=84 */
};

data 'MENU' (128, "Apple") {
    $"0080 0000 0000 0000 0000 FFFF FFFB 0114"            /*=20
.=C3=84........=CB=87=CB=87=CB=87=CB=9A.. */
    $"0A41 626F 7574 2046 4C54 4B00 0000 0001"            /* =C2=ACAbout=20
FLTK..... */
    $"2D00 0000 0000"                                     /* -..... */
};

data 'carb' (0) {
};


2) run Rez on all the executable binaries that use UI (this can include=20
plugins)
/Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL -o YOUR_BINARY mac.r
