OSX with simple display

Joels-MacBook-Pro:arsd joelcnz$ dmd simpled.d simpledisplay.d color.d
ld: library not found for -lGL
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
--- errorlevel 1

The simpled.d is just a copy of the example in simpledisplay.d module.

try adding -version=without_opengl but I don't think it will work
anyway because Apple removed the X server from Mac (you can install
it separately anyway though, it is called XQuartz I believe)

Once the X server is installed it should work completely, but without
it I don't think it will work at all, you just can try without_opengl.

With -version=without_opengl I get:

Joels-MacBook-Pro:arsd joelcnz$ dmd simpled simpledisplay.d color.d -version=without_opengl

Update on what's going on here: dmd is getting better objective C support, looks like in about two releases. Once that comes in, I will start porting sdpy to Cocoa. So probably a end of 2019 goal. (sorry about the 3 year wait)
