Misc Mac mods by Jack. Added libmacic.tex, and these patches:

libmacfs.tex	Document NewAliasMinimalFromFullPath
libmacos.tex	Document SetEventHandler and SchedParams
libmacui.tex	Document asynchronous event handling
libmailbox.tex	Removed mime-turds that somehow got in here

 overridden. The default methods take care of dispatching events to
 windows and dialogs, handling drags and resizes, Apple Events, events
 for non-FrameWork windows, etc.

+In general, all event handlers should return 1 if the event is fully
+handled and 0 otherwise (because the front window was not a FrameWork
+window, for instance). This is needed so that update events and such
+can be passed on to other windows like the Sioux console window.
+Calling \code{MacOS.HandleEvent} is not allowed within \var{our_dispatch}

+Call this method with a nonzero parameter to enable
+asynchronous event handling. This will tell the inner interpreter loop
+to call the application event handler \var{async_dispatch} whenever events
+are available. This will cause FrameWork window updates and the user
+interface to remain working during long computations, but will slow the
+interpreter down and may cause surprising results in non-reentrant code
+(such as FrameWork itself). By default \var{async_dispatch} will immedeately
+call \var{our_dispatch} but you may override this to handle only certain
+events asynchronously. Events you do not handle will be passed to Sioux
