Hi Jari,<br>
<br>
currently I am testing my plugins on cross-platform compatibility
and I noticed two problems on MacOS (the plugin development was done
on Windows):<br>
<br>
1.) io.popen seems to be not supported by JW Lua on MacOS.<br>
From what I have read in some forums this might be an issue of an
older 5.2 Lua release for MacOS.<br>
It was recommended to compile with the latest 5.2 Lua release where
the issue should have been fixed.<br>
See for example:<br>

<br>
2.) The dialogs on Windows and MacOS need different scaling factors
to have the same look.<br>
To make my Windows 10 dialog look the same on MacOS (El Capitan) I
needed to scale the x values (Width and X-Offset) by ca. 1.25 and
the y values (Height and Y-Offset) by ca. 1.46.<br>
I don't know if these values are correct for every Windows and MacOS
version, but they seem to work much better than using the default
(identical) scaling on Windows and MacOS.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
