thoughts of a mac os x build? #90

Closed rhaynes74 closed 3 years ago

rhaynes74 commented 3 years ago

Hi folks, any interest in providing a version compiled on a mac?

GTK should be easier to port the code to. But significantly harder to build...

blackhole89 commented 3 years ago

Well, if anyone with a Mac is interested in looking into it... I don't have any Apple hardware and there unfortunately isn't any Wine equivalent for it that would be good enough to test it from another system. I remember previously superficially looking into it and finding that Homebrew has all the required packages available, so perhaps it would not be too difficult.

I've wrote Homebrew formulas for cLaTeXMath and NoteKit. With them you should be able to build it yourself.

clatexmath.rb.gz notekit.rb.gz

On the question on if we could submit them to Homebrew/homebrew-core, I have no Idea if they allow git sources and even If, we'd at least need to comment on why the patch for llvm is needed. (Or find a solution here, that's better)

You should be able to install NoteKit now.

If you have homebrew installed, you can just type brew install --HEAD sp1ritCS/tap/notekit and then ln -s /usr/local/opt/notekit/NoteKit.app /Applications/

It should be in your application launcher (or whatever it's called) then.

Many thanks. - I will give it a try!
