I have a working prototype of a notarized version of #OmegaT.app for #macOS packaged in a signed standard dmg volume. Both open nicely on 2 different #Sequoia machines that I tried them on.

The document where I describe the process is here:
https://github.com/omegat-org/omegat/blob/topic/jc/macos/notarization/notarization.md

The prototype is here:

Thank you @amake for your #macport version of OmegaT. I used its launcher script to fix our "can’t launch the JRE" issue.

After seeing more about that Apple scanning thing, and ye olde #LittleSnitch I couldn't help but wonder:

Hasn't someone somewhere come up with an alternative to Little Snitch in the libre/free open source software world? After all, #macOS uses #pf (from #OpenBSD) these days (though previously it was using #ipfw from #FreeBSD).

The answer is yes: #LuLu: https://objective-see.org/products/lulu.html

The associated #GitHub repo: https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu

It has a #Homebrew formula, no #MacPort, I may have to fix that.

Listening to #deathjester's die_again #MOD (http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=90815) with #openmpt123 from a #MacPort Portfile that has not yet been merged (https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/17284).

A timely reminder that it has an #MLK sample.

I originally listened to this decades ago on an Amiga 2000 with a 7MHz CPU, with arguably: much better realtime visualization than openmpt123 provides. ;)

It appears as if LumoSQL has improved somewhat since I last looked at it, professing to run on BSDs even!

Which, certainly did not seem to be true when I first looked at it.

I don't think there's a #MacPort for #LumoSQL yet but don't tempt me with a good time:

I may just fumble my way through it with a lot of help, eventually. ;)
