Error installing circtools on Mac OSX due to no wget #77

Closed skambha6 closed 5 years ago

skambha6 commented 5 years ago

I am unable to directly install circtools on Mac OSX because osx does not come with wget pre-installed (user-end workaround possible by installing wget on osx using homebrew)

Command used: pip3 install circtools --user Error message: -bash: wget: command not found

OS: Mac OSX 10.11.6

As a fix I will implement a OS switch for MacOS and then use curl instead, which is part of the default MacOS install.
