Hello,

I just wanted to provide some feedback on my attempts to use U++'s IDE on macOS Catalina. There seems to be a few areas to improve on:

1) Get the .app signed with an Apple signature
2) Review the .app's access to macOS API's/features (Desktop folder, Documents folder, Downloads folder, Photos, Calendar, Reminders)
3) SVN was removed from Apple's tool-chains as of around July 2020 (it's no longer part of XCode / Command Line Tools). TheIDE should configure a fallback path for finding SVN through the path(s) installed package managers like Homebrew or MacPorts (actually, TheIDE should probably offer to install/setup SVN when it is not found). Right now this requires a slew of workarounds.

Just some feedback to make the macOS port of TheIDE a more functional user experience.
