On OSX, you need to build it as a "Mac Application". This
is what little I know (I am very new to OSX, as well):

If your executable is called Cone, then create
the following tree of directories:

Cone.app/Contents/MacOS/Cone

where the last Cone is the executable. Then the Mac
understands this is an application (or you can simply
execute the it by typing in the above path from
a terminal. Once you do this, all events are properly
recognized and handled.

We need some decent tutorial web pages from OSX experts!
