Some points if you want to build it

1. it depends on the framework ios_system.framework but it is not included in this repository. You may need to get it from the ios_system project;
2. you can find all the modifications in the code by searching for FEAT_IOS;
3. the file commmand needs magic definition files (as in the dir Magdir) to work properly, you need to make them availbale in your project by setting the environment variable MAGIC.
