For a customer I have created a utility in QB64 (console-mode).
It's relatively small and simple (some REST calls via SHELL "wget ..." to update csv-files)
I develop everything on Windows 10 and use the latest QB64pe x64 3.12
Now it's finished and need to compile it for Mac-OS (customer uses macbooks everywhere)
Since I don't have a Mac, I use a VirtualBox with Mac Big Sur (11?) for some time now to compile my QB64 programs for a Mac.
This always worked, until now...
When tested by customer they see binary stuff scrolling by very fast in a terminal window; as if the executable is displayed instead of executed...
Since I know nothing about Mac, I don't know what goes wrong here.
Anyone?
