0.95 & MacOS attempt

[Timothée Giet]

Hi B.J.,

Indeed I also have started looking at packaging the mac version 
recently, got the build working but got stuck at making a distributable 
package.
If you find the missing pieces I'm interested, you can contact me and 
Johnny directly :)

Cheers,
Timothée
