Compiling for Mac-OS

[NakedApe]

You're welcome, mdijkens. I tried yr program on a newer Mac mini M2 and the zip opened right up with no issues. Double clicking on the mdAnswerIntents_start.command icon launched the program immediately. To unzip yr folder the second time I used "RAR Extractor - Unarchiver Pro." I've had good luck with that app. Using the .command file to start a MacOS program is best practice since it's a mini batch file that cleans up after itself, closing the terminal app for yr program upon termination.    EDIT: Of course before any downloaded QB64PE program will run, you have to jump through the security hoops: System Settings > Privacy and Security > scroll to the bottom and allow the .command and the .exe files to be run...

Thank you for this additional info
I understand that from my side I don't have to do anything different then what I already did.

Is this done for all (future) .command and applications, or is that done per application?
I think customers would normally prefer the latter

Every unrecognized executable (including .command files) needs permission to run in my experience, but I'm no expert. I'm glad it worked out for you.
