3 suggestions for mac

[sulflix]

ive got 3 suggestions
make the MacOS branch of SFP an actual .app instead of a UNIX executable, implement a "hide in dock" feature and make it so when the steam app is in the dock, it doesn't show another steam instance and it makes it run INSIDE the already existing steam application in the dock

I don't have a mac myself so it's really difficult to test changes here.

I tried distributing it as an app instead in the past but it seems like it has issues running on a mac without it being signed (which requires an apple dev subscription).

I'd be open to any changes that would improve the experience on mac for sure though

it doesn't show another steam instance and it makes it run INSIDE the already existing steam application in the dock

Also the issue with this is that SFP needs to restart Steam with the required argument (-cef-enable-debugging). If you manually configure Steam to run with this argument then SFP should be able to just interact with the existing instance and it wouldn't need to restart it. EDIT: You could maybe follow #97 and make a file named .cef-enable-remote-debugging in the Steam folder and then turn off Force Steam arguments in SFP and then maybe that would work. I'm not certain if this would work on Mac.

back, just need to be assured, by the steam folder you mean /Users/(USERNAME)/Library/Application Support/Steam/Steam.AppBundle/Steam/Contents/MacOS right?

I believe so, it should be wherever the actual steam executable lives
