x86 Mac users: if you are on Monterey or newer, use gargoyle-2023.1-mac-x64.dmg. Otherwse, try gargoyle-2023.1-mac-x64-mojave.dmg. This was built on Mojave, but should work at least as far back as High Sierra. Earlier macOS versions have not been tested.

Highlights:

• Gargoyle now implements Glk version 0.7.5.
• Various interpreter updates.

• SDL2 is now used instead of SDL1 (thanks to Manuel Stoeckl).
• Built-in fonts are no longer supported due to licensing issues.
• The default proportional font has been changed to Charis SIL (renamed to “Gargoyle Serif”); the default monospace font is still Go Mono, renamed to “Gargoyle Mono”.

• Improved font lookup on Fontconfig-based systems to avoid cases where the wrong font styles were being used.
• HiDPI is supported on macOS.

This is a bug fix release for Gargoyle 2019.1:

• Fix font selection on Windows

• Bocfel 1.0.1
• Git 1.3.5
• Glulxe 0.5.4
• Hugo 3.3.0
• Jacl 2.9.0
• Tads2 2.5.17
• Tads3 3.1.3

In addition, the Gargoyle Glk implementation has seen some improvements:

• Text-to-speech support
• The built-in fonts support a much wider range of Unicode
• Full screen support
• Various accumulated small fixes and updates

macOS users: There are two versions for macOS. The dmg file was built on a modern version of macOS and is the preferred build. However, it won't work on older versions. Reports have it working on 10.13, 10.14, and 10.15, but not 10.9. The zip file was built on macOS 10.7 and as such should work on 10.7 and later versions. In short, try the dmg file, and only in the case where that fails, then try the zip.
