Porting to OS X.

Been very busy, hence no blog updates.

Today I did a lot of messing with Mac OS X. Firstly, I did set up compiler on Linux to build for Mac (by this tutorial), only to discover that OSX 10.5 obsoleted old binary format somehow (i386_THREAD_STATE marker number changed, *what the hell*), so I had to fix and debug linker (took several hours), manually merging in some headers from apple's SDK into odcctools (automatic merge failed).

Secondly, whenever I use mac I'm annoyed by OS X infamous mouse acceleration curve.

I found apple mouse driver's settings, you can read those online here All the important settings are base-64. IOHIPointing.cpp and IOHIPointing.h seem to be the implementation. I'll refrain from commenting on the apple's truly horrific coding practices, apart from noting that apple's linker sources seem even worse.
