cocoaIsRunningTranslocated()

bool cocoaIsRunningTranslocated

(

)

helper to detect if we're running translocated or not.

Google 'Gatekeep app translation' for more info about this; basically it happens when the user runs us directly from the DMG, and this makes for very nasty file paths.

const std::string &

url

cocoaRegisterTerminateHandler()

void cocoaRegisterTerminateHandler

(

)

Do some cleanup manually to avoid crashes on exit.
