Typo in the second commit message
download a pre-build binary
-> download a pre-built binary
Also, would it be possible to stick with the standard line length limit for the lines containing the caveats as well?
Otherwise I don't have much else to add. Great to have the cross-platform support in place.
Of course! I copy/pasted from the changelog and forgot to apply the line limit. Fixed now. |

Looks good to me too, a great step towards cross-platform consistency!
This is an MVP implementation of Linux and macOS support. Everything is functional but there are two caveats that should certainly be resolved in future versions: * The standard library is not pre-compiled and zipped so it takes up more space than the Windows variant. * The environment is not as locked down as the Windows variant: `pip` is still accessible in the final package. On Windows, we can simply download a pre-built binary embedded package, but on macOS and Linux, we need to build from source and lock down the environment ourselves. This means that the two points above require a bit more effort. We can tackle this later. For now, this implementation is certainly good enough to get going.
