+### Launchpad / Spotlight integration (macOS)

+`brew install` puts `glabels-qt` and `glabels-batch-qt` on your `$PATH` as CLI
+binaries. To get a Launchpad icon (and Spotlight matches), copy the bundled
+`.app` wrapper to `/Applications/`:

+directly without elevation; the `cp` is the user's one-time step.)
