Mouser.spec: commented out the binaries/datas filters and added a macOS BUNDLE block to build a .app (sets icon, bundle_identifier and Info.plist entries such as CFBundleShortVersionString, LSUIElement and NSHighResolutionCapable). main_qml.py: when frozen on darwin, set ROOT to Contents/Resources inside the .app bundle; keep the existing _internal path for other PyInstaller builds. These changes enable correct resource lookup and packaging for macOS app bundles and support menu-bar/background behavior and high-DPI.
Add a "Packaging as a macOS App" section to readme_mac_osx.md. Documents building a self-contained .app with PyInstaller (pyinstaller Mouser.spec), where the output appears (dist/Mouser.app), explains the app is packaged as an LSUIElement (runs silently in background / menu bar only), and warns to grant Accessibility permissions if the built app has permission issues or silent-crashes.
