The linker wants me to redefine "main" to clear the error but this doesn't make sense and the app crashes when launched.  I.e.:

function main(argc: integer; argv: pchar): integer; cdecl; public;

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11976084/why-sdl-defines-main-macro

states that SDL wants to rename your main function to SDL_main so that it can use its own main function (main I assume) which then calls out to your main function. I had old code from 2016 which appears to do this but for some reason now I'm getting this linker error.

My only guess is that the linker can't find the SDL main function in the framework, even though everything else links properly.
