The OSX Integration repository has moved.

Recent events have made it clear that this is not or no longer a place where I can \
consider hosting code.

-# OS X Integration
+The OSX Integration repository has moved.
 
-Improved integration of Qt and KDE applications with the Mac OS X desktop
+Recent events have made it clear that this is not or no longer a place where I can \
consider hosting code.  
-The sources are organised in Qt version-specific branches; please checkout
-- any branch when interested only in the platform theme
-- qt580 when using Qt 5.8.0
-- qt590 when using Qt 5.9.x (or Qt 5.8.0 and benefit from new features in the
-  Qt 5.9x Cocoa plugin and Macintosh style.
-
-I expect to add new branches when stable versions are released and intend
-to maintain a minimum dependency on Qt 5.9x LTS.
-
-### KDEPlatformTheme
-
-The plugin Mac KDE platform theme plugin makes it possible to use KDE font
-specifications and colour palettes, so that themes like Breeze, Oxygen or
-QtCurve look like they should but above all that applications use the fonts
-and font roles for which they were designed. This plugin functions as a
-wrapper; any request it cannot handle authoritatively itself will be handed
-off to the platform plugin, which means things like native menubars and Dock
-menus continue to work.
-Newer versions of the plugin introduced build-time preferences for file
-dialog styles (native or KDE) and more generic convenience features like
-click-and-hold to trigger a contextmenu and emulation of a Menu key (right
-Command+Option key-combo).
-
-Originally a custom-built Qt with a simple patch was required that would let
-the plugin load automatically like in a KDE session (KDE_SESSION_VERSION set to
-4 or 5). Setting QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=kde will work with a stock Qt install,
-and the plugin can now also be built to override the native Cocoa QPA plugin
-(OVERRIDE_NATIVE_THEME CMake option). The Menu key emulation still requires
-a Qt patch (or a dedicated event handler) to do anything useful though.
-
-* Other useful env. variables:
-- QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME_VERBOSE : activate verbose mode (logging category
-  CocoaPlatformTheme or KDEPlatformTheme).
-- QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME_CONFIG_FILE : load a different file instead of "kdeglobals"
-  from ~/.config or ~/Library/Preferences
-- QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME_DISABLED : disable the plugin completely.
-- PREFER_KDE_DIALOGS : force KDE dialogs even when configured to prefer native
-  file dialogs.
-
-This component should still build against Qt 5.5.x; the other components need at
-least Qt 5.8 .
-
-### QMacStyle
-A modified fork of the native macintosh style from Qt 5.9 (git) which doesn't
-impose the Mac standard font for QComboBox menu items and provides support
-for named menu sections in context menus and menus attached to a "non-native"
-menubar. Also builds against Qt 5.8.0 .
-A standalone build of this component can be done using the provided QMake file
-(qmacstyle/macstyle.pro).
-
-### QCocoaQPA
-A modified fork of the Cocoa platform plugin from Qt 5.9 (git; builds against Qt
-5.8.0) which provides support for named menu sections under the native menubar
-and also reintroduces a basic fullscreen mode that works consistently across
-Mission Control settings and platforms - i.e. it never blackens out other
-attached monitors but keeps their content visible and accessible. It's also a
-lot faster and supports opening new windows without side-effects when in
-fullscreen mode. Selecting the FreeType engine has been made easier via an env.
-variable (QT_MAC_USE_FREETYPE) as well as an integration function that can be
-called from application code (see kfontsettingsdatamac.mm). There's also support
-for activating the FontConfig fontengine/database (QT_MAC_USE_FONTCONFIG) but
-this requires a patched QtBase configured to use FontConfig. Both use a font
-gamma setting that determines font darkness and can be set via the env. var
-QT_MAC_FREETYPE_FONT_GAMMA .
-This plugin installs next to and will be loaded instead of the stock plugin; it
-will then give priority to the modified QMacStyle if that is installed. If the
-KDE platform theme plugin is built in override mode (see above) this plugin is
-loaded instead (and will then load the modified or the stock cocoa platform
-plugin).
-A standalone build of this component can be done using the provided QMake file
-(qcocoa-qpa/qcocoa-standalone.pro).
-
-### Building
-The preferred way of building this project is using CMake, and requires KDE's Extra
-CMake Modules (http://projects.kde.org/projects/kdesupport/extra-cmake-modules) ;
-this is also the only way to build the KDE platform theme plugin component.
-
-* CMake options:
-- BUILD_KDE_THEME_PLUGIN : should the KDE platform theme plugin be built?
-- BUILD_QT_PLUGINS : should the Qt style and QPA plugin components be built?
-
-* CMake options for the KDE platform theme plugin:
-- DEFINE_ICONTHEME_SETTINGS : Should the theme plugin define a standard theme and
-  add the standard locations for icon themes to the search path?
-- PREFER_NATIVE_DIALOGS : Should native dialogs be preferred over Qt's \
                cross-platform
-  dialogs?
-- NEVER_NATIVE_DIALOGS : Should native dialogs never be used (when not already \
                preferred)?
-- OVERRIDE_NATIVE_THEME : see above. NB: the Macintosh/Aqua widget style remains the
-  default style!
-- DISABLE_DBUS_SUPPORT : Don't build the D-Bus functionality. Experimental!
-- EMULATE_MENU_KEY : emulate a Menu key (right Command+Option key-combo); requires
-  BUILD_QT_PLUGINS to be set in order for that keypress to open the context menu.
-
-* CMake options for QCocoaQPA :
-- HAVE_INFINALITY : should be enabled when you have the Infinality+Ultimate \
                patch-set
-  applied to FreeType *and* FontConfig. Without this option fonts will probably look
-  washed out.
