Native macOS guide

Status: in progress
There is no macOS executable or release package yet. The current playable backend is Linux-specific, and the repository does not claim that the Linux ELF or Windows bring-up executable runs natively on macOS.
The planned native port will reuse the reconstructed authored game sources behind a macOS window, input, audio, renderer, and packaging boundary. The player-facing installation and data-directory commands will be documented here after that backend exists and has been tested on real macOS hardware.
Follow the platform sequence and shared portability constraints in Playable
reconstruction ports. The expected data contract remains a legally
obtained original Japanese TH08 1.00d directory containing th08.dat and
thbgm.dat; no copyrighted game data will be bundled with a future package.
