Thanks, Adam. Before I respond, I’d just like to say to Adam what a fantastic job he’s done with the OS X nightly packages. I took a look at these and they’re great. Others have pointed out a few remaining niggles, but these are tiny compared to the huge win for the Kicad and the OS X users. It was a huge effort, I’m sure, and probably annoying at times, but I don’t want it to be thankless. Thank you, Adam.
Nick, I think Adam wasn’t referring to issues, per se, but rather to some things that I brought up on the list, as he has pointed out. There’s a bit more detail in this commit message: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~gcorral/kicad/osx-trackpad-gestures/revision/5244 <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~gcorral/kicad/osx-trackpad-gestures/revision/5244> There were some small, intentional changes I made to the behavior that make sense on OS X, and I just wanted to make sure that they were sane on other platforms as well.
