agt2agx not running under Mojave in latest versions of Spatterlight #67

Closed Nephar closed 1 year ago

Is there a reason why agt2agx executable is not running in Mojave but Spatterlight and Agility terp themselves are working fine? It gives "illegal instruction: 4" when run from the command line. This also causes Spatterlight itself choke on running AGT's .D$$ files (like Klaustrophobia's klaus1.d$$), since Spatterlight seems to convert them to agx format before running Agility interpreter.

The last version of agt2agx that is working under Mojave seems to be from Spatterlight 0.8.8 Yosemite build.

Checked in Spatterlight 0.9.9

Thanks for reporting this! It is apparently broken in all sandboxed builds. I'll look into it.

If you want a temporary workaround, it seems that it works if you select Add to library (not Open file) and then select a directory that contains the .D$$ and related files, not the file itself.

Nice workaround. I was using the agt2agx from 0.8.8 to convert to agx, then Spatterlight runs the agx file fine.

Btw, you might want to also touch the misleading error message in Spatterlight terp call. It suggests that the agt file is an older style one and can't be converted to agx, regardless of the actual error agt2agx returns:
