Kile resolution

Hello, 

Unfortunately, looking slightly in more details, it appears the patch described below has been applied to the master branch, which is now the code dedicated to the KF5 version, so that it could not be applied directly to the version in Macports, still based on Qt4 and KDE4.
The patch is also using an attribute available in Qt5, but not available in Qt4.8.5 according to the best I could find. I also tried to set NSHighResolutionCapable attribute in the Info.plist, but without producing any difference. 

Cheers, 

Nicolas
