I found out this when I tried GeoDa on the MacBook with Retina display. The font and icons are all blur on the Retina display. See the comparison:

After changing the information in .plist file, the fonts are displaying crisp. But the icons and the maps/plots are still not.

Will take some time to find a solution.

don't think the difference is that significant - for this week, I think
dealing with the crashes is higher priority

lixun910 added a commit that referenced this issue Mar 4, 2016
The crash of Category Editor in Histogram is caused by a uncleaned
linking code that tries to find already closed histogram.

This fix also update the plist to support crisp font in Retina display.
The icon/drawing code still needs a solution.

with new wxwidgets library, we can get pretty sharp rendering on high DPI screens (e.g. mac retina or windows surface)!!
