Support macOS

[colinleefish]

Hi! Syncing clipboard across devices is a very much needed feature for people working on multiple devices. Thank you for working on such a great idea!

By the way, do you have plan to make it cross platform? Currently it looks kinda weird on macOS.

Thanks!

Thank you.

Yeah, I sure want to support other platforms, I just didn't have a need so far.

It should not be too difficult to make it work on macOS. I'll keep this issue posted if I have news.

A bit of news:

• Use node's fs.watch rather than @parcel/watcher and watchman #41
  • This is a step towards cross platform

Other things I believe will be necessary:

• Ensure fswin is only imported and called in Windows platform
• Fix the icon for macOS as it should not be .ico there

Just commenting to agree with Colinleefish. I am very keen to have a cross-platform clipboard sync as it is currently such a pain syncing between mac and windows.

Thanks!

Support for macOS at this point is only a matter of fixing the tray icon.

Looks like it requires a special Template.png: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/tray#:~:text=)%0A%7D)-,MacOS,-Icons%20passed%20to

I just didn't add support yet because I don't have a macOS environment to test, but I can try making the changes and asking someone to test.
