GUIDE: Deploying TurboActivate.dylib on Mac OS X

This post is a how to guide for those deploying turboactivate.dylib on Mac OS X without Xcode.We have a cross platform application that uses the Qt GUI framework.None of out Mac builds use XCode.I have a script that we use to bind the turboactivate.dylib to the app bundles.I thought this might be useful to other developers that don't use XCode on Mac OS X.
