-The macOS version embeds two separate under-the-hood implementations
-using different notification APIs. The choice of which one to use
-depends on which version of the OS is being run and the state of the
-Tk application code. The newer API, introduced in macOS 10.14,
-requires that the application accessing the API be code-signed, or the
-notification will not display. (A self-signed certificate seems to be
-sufficient.) The older API was deprecated but not removed in macOS
-11.0. Tk uses the newer API only for signed applications running on
-macOS 10.14 or newer. Otherwise it falls back to the older API. A
-quirk which developers should be aware of is that if an unsigned
-version of Wish (or an application derived from it) is installed on
-top of a signed version after the signed version has been registered
-with System Preferences then neither API will be allowed to show
-notifications, making Tk's automatic fallback to the older API
-ineffective. To re-enable notifications the application must be
-deleted from Apple's System Preferences Notifications section. (There
-is no removal button, so this is done by selecting the application and
-pressing the Delete key.)
