MacOS Support

[dladeira]

When running on MacOS, I get this error:

= note: ld: library not found for -lX11
          clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

What I theorize that needs to be done is to specify the custom path x11 is installed in, which I think would look something like this

-L /opt/X11/lib -lX11

But I have no idea how.

Part 2, I did some magic and now I get this error

sh-3.2$ cargo run
   Compiling x11cap v0.4.1 (/Users/24ladeira_d/Documents/rust/clip)
error: linking with `cc` failed: exit status: 1

I unfortunately don't have access to a macos system, and I am pretty unfamiliar with its inner workings. Is this using x11 or x11-dl?

[dladeira]

X11

What features are you using? The solution proposed in #94 could work for you. It might also work for you temporarily if you run cargo run -- -lx11 as found in https://trac.macports.org/changeset/108113, which seems to have the same linker output.
