Some better more clear instructions fbuilding and installation on a Mac would be very welcome. The makefile doesn’t include the obvious choiolike make build make install And autoconf is strangely unsatified with the configure.in Any tips are welcome.

TestDisk can recover HFS and HFS+ partitions, it can not list files from those filesystems. PhotoRec can recover files from HFS and HFS+ partitions but is not able to recover files from the free space only. Instructions on how to compile testdisk & photorec can be found on https://www.cgsecurity.org/testdisk.pdf If there are things specific to Mac OS X to add, please let me know. I have no Apple computer myself.
