Purpose
The Launcher is a bootstrap/shim application that checks if the appropriate version of mono is installed and subsequently use it to execute Sonarr. By using a separate application, instead of a shell script, this allows the user to assign certain operating system permissions to Sonarr specifically.
Compiling the Launcher
You need an OSX installation with xcode Then run compile.sh in a terminal
The generated dist/Launcher can be renamed to Sonarr and Sonarr.Update to serve as shims to run Sonarr.exe and Sonarr.Update.exe respectively.
