When will this project support MacOS devices, either Intel or Apple Silicon Macs, of both?

TF = Trial Factoring with GPU
prst is for CPUs

In the past we have tried to asked someone to compile a mac app, most of them switched from mac to windows, no luck.

mfaktc has a mac app but we need our boinc wrapper compiled for mac.

Also prst with our source code need to be compiled for mac too, we cannot use the latest app.

If someone can compile it let me know.
