SDL 2.0.4 bug tracker for OS X or KDE

#
# SDL 2.0.4 Bug-"Count" Checker for Mac OS X or KDE
# Version 1.6
#
# Requirements:
#  - any one of the following command-line notification tools:
#      - Growl and growlnotify, for Mac OS X, available at http://growl.info
#      - kdialog, for KDE
#      - notify-send, for generic Linux notifications
#  - curl
#
# Tech notes:
#  - temporary files are placed directly in /tmp.  According to the interwebs,
#    OS X deletes these files every few days, if left unused... probably.  To
#    clear these files manually, run:
#      rm "/tmp/SDLBugCount*"
#
# History:
#  1.0: first release, ha ha ha!
#  1.1: better messages, ha ha ha!
#  1.1.1: code cleanups, ha ha ha!
#  1.2: fixed number parsing bugs, ha ha ha!
#  1.3: one, one notification window, ha ha ha!
#  1.4: click to show info, ha ha ha!
#  1.5: KDE support, ha ha ha!  (Thanks @thothonegan !)
#  1.6: Conjugation, ha ha ha!

Apparently you can do pull requests on gists?!

Here's notify-send support, for the non-KDE Linux users:

--ryan.

Sort of. gists can be forked, but there aren't pull requests, although that would be pretty cool.

Regardless, your changes are merged-in now. Thanks! 😃
