Matthew Kilgore 37f2ecd4ce Fix setup_osx.command script when run from a different directory 
I broke this by accident in 5031de2, likely by misreading the $0.  What
the line was intended to do was change to the directory the script is
located in when the script starts, this allows the script to be started
from any location.

Typically this isn't necessary functionality, but for Mac OS it's
important because if you double-click the script (the typical way to run
it) it is started from the user's home directory. Due to this I also
updated the Mac OS distribution test to run the script in this way so
that it's closer to how a user will run it.

Fixes: #218

Installation

Download the appropriate package for your operating system over at https://github.com/QB64-Phoenix-Edition/QB64pe/releases/latest

Windows

Make sure to extract the package contents to a folder with full write permissions (failing to do so may result in IDE or compilation errors).

  • It is advisable to to whitelist the 'qb64pe' folder in your antivirus/antimalware software *

macOS

Before using QB64-PE make sure to install the Xcode command line tools with:

xcode-select --install

Run ./setup_osx.command to compile QB64-PE for your OS version.

Linux

Compile QB64-PE with ./setup_lnx.sh.

Dependencies should be automatically installed. Required packages include OpenGL, ALSA and the GNU C++ Compiler.

Usage

Run the qb64pe executable to launch the IDE, which you can use to edit your .BAS files. From there, hit F5 to compile and run your code.

To generate a binary without running it, hit F11.

Additionally, if you do not wish to use the integrated IDE and to only compile your program, you can use the following command-line calls:

qb64pe -c yourfile.bas

qb64pe -c yourfile.bas -o outputname.exe

Replacing -c with -x will compile without opening a separate compiler window.
