Gered 23a413a98a use AWT's FileDialog so we get real native OS file dialogs 
i need to test this more on Windows/Linux to ensure it works fine there
too, but i think it should be fine.

getting native OS file dialogs is _probably_ most important on OS X
as the Swing JFileChooser version lacks the favourites column which
a lot of users will end up feeling somewhat lost without.

Llanfair

From the homepage:

Llanfair is a free software that helps speedrunners keep track of their run. Released in August 2012, its capacity for customization and its portability allowed it to garner some recognition in the scene. Developed in Java, Llanfair can run on Windows, MacOS, or Unix.

The original author Xavier "Xunkar" Sencert was kind enough to release the sources (see here and here) when I asked. I'm not completely certain if Xunkar ever intends to continue development of Llanfair himself as it seems he uses LiveSplit now (?).

Regardless, here I will be extending the original application as best I can by adding some missing features here and there and fixing bugs as needed.

Building and Running

You will need Gradle. The Gradle application plugin is being used, so you can run Llanfair simply by doing:

$ gradle run

To package up a JAR file for redistribution, run:

$ gradle shadowJar

Which will spit out an "uber JAR" under build/libs under the naming convention llanfair-[VERSION]-all.jar.

Mac OS X and Accessibility Settings for Global Hotkeys

Previous releases of Llanfair used an older version of JNativeHook which didn't really provide any built-in help if OS X was not properly configured in advance when Llanfair tried to hook into global key events. This version uses a more recent version that pops up a dialog telling you what to do if Llanfair does not yet have the required accessibility permissions, so you should not get the problem where Llanfair mysteriously closes immediately after running.

Note that currently Llanfair only supports hotkeys via the JNativeHook / global hotkey interface! If it was not able to hook into the OS's key events (either because you denied proper permissions or for some other reason), then you will not be able to set any hotkeys in the settings window and you will thusly not be able to trigger any splits or start/stop any runs! This is one of the first things I intend to address.

TODO

Lots of stuff still to be done. :)
