Problems to launch unbundled macOS apps from /tmp should be fixed with commit 1045538

    Oh wow, I didn't know unbundled macOS apps could work at all.

    Back in ye olde days running an unbundled app (just the executable, no .app directory)
    did all kinds of weird window behavior things.

    So that "works" now? Sounds great if so.
    I always thought that was kinda weird when it didn't work just because it couldn't
    find those minimal plist files.

FLTK supports unbundled macOS apps. SInce macOS 10.13 (2017), FLTK needs to start

the event loop of unbundled apps differently than what it does for bundled ones:

[NSApp finishLaunching];

[NSApp run];

This requires that FLTK detects at run time whether a bundled or unbundled app

is being started.That is done comparing two folder paths, and when the unbundled app

is /tmp/fltk/prog, the comparison became "/tmp/fltk" vs "/private/tmp/fltk" which

were detected as different although they actually refer to the same folder. Then,

the event loop starting means adequate for bundled apps was used, and blocked the app.

This is now fixed.
