it creates a 348K "Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64", but I'm not sure how I would add that to the dock. I tried to drag it there with finder, but it would not take it.

You need an App Bundle. This is normally handled by Xcode or your building script, but it's possible to do it manually.

To make App bundles you have to create the following directory structure:

    Lite.app
    \- Content
        \- MacOS
           \- Lite (that's the executable file)

Here's a script that automates all that: [1]

To add an icon you need a plist and a icns file [2].

I know it looks cumbersome, but it pays off when you need to bundle multiple files with your app.
