Yesterday I built DOSBox on Mac. But I have one question.
How can I include the SDL in the executable?
If I build the SDL it's located in /usr/local/lib/ (a hidden directory)
But the official DOSBox has the SDL included in the executable (located at DOSBox.app/Contents/MacOS/DOSBox where the last DOSBox is the executable)

Thanks

Look for something called static linking.

I thought I needed to do it with static linking but the problem is I don't now how. I couldn't find a readme or tutorial from the SDL people to do it.
