THIS LIST IS NO LONGER CURRENT:
  • rtconfig.txt gets "global_scale 2.0" line. on Windows you have some flexibility here (if you want to do a 1.5x theme you can), but on macOS it should be either 2.0 or nothing, at least if you want it retina-rendered...
  • On Windows, item_*.png should be 2x, but on macOS they should not be. This rule probably applies to some other images, too.
  • *SOME* theme font sizes should be approximately doubled, but the list of which fonts are doubled differs slightly on macOS Retina vs Windows HiDPI.

Yes, this is a mess. Retina/HiDPI work vastly different on each platform (or between Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 10 Anniversary Update, and apparently a forthcoming Win10 update for that matter)...
