Hi folks, I have written a patch that modifies the OS X help search path so it looks inside of
/Libraries/Application Support/kicad/help <whatever.app>/Contents/SharedSupport/help per our previous discussion. I have wrapped the existing code in a ! __APPLE__ define, and wrapped the OS X only code in a __APPLE__ define. I was thinking about removing the commented __linux__ and __WINDOWS__ ifdefs, but someone on the list recently mentioned both paths with regards to Windows help files, so I am not sure if they are "canonical" or not. It will be a 2 second change to switch them from ! __APPLE__ to __linux__ and __WINDOWS__, so no problem, just let me know if that is preferable. I tried to follow all the coding conventions as well as make the code blend with the existing code. I have tested it, and this works for both the kicad.app and the symlinked apps as well, like pcbnew.app. Thanks everyone! Let me know if there's anything I need to change.
