fomus: command not found

[prko]

Dear smoge,

I have evaluated the following two codes, slightly modified from your sample code in the help document:

(
a = 12.collect({|i|
  ( 'midinote': (
      (63 + rrand(-6,6.5) + [0,8,13]) ++
      (60 + rrand(-6,6.5) + [0,5,6,9]) ),
    'dur': 1 )
});

f = Fomus();
f.lilyPath  = "/opt/homebrew/bin/lilypond";
f.lilyViewPath = "/opt/homebrew/bin/xpdf";
f.fileName = "~/SCFomus_".standardizePath;
f.add(a);
f.ly;
)

(
a = 12.collect({|i|
  ( 'midinote': (
      (63 + rrand(-6,6.5) + [0,8,13]) ++
      (60 + rrand(-6,6.5) + [0,5,6,9]) ),
    'dur': 1 )
});

f = Fomus()
.lilyPath_("/opt/homebrew/bin/lilypond")
.lilyViewPath_("/opt/homebrew/bin/xpdf")
.fileName_("~/SCFomus_".standardizePath)
.add(a)
.ly;
)

The results are as follows:

Did I do something wrong?

[prko]

I realised that I had not installed fomus. I cannot install it on the Apple silicon chip. Is there no way to use it on the Apple silicon chip?

[prko]

I cannot install fomus on Ventura on an Intel Mac.

Hi @prko, I was not able to compile fomus on the current macOS version, but I manage to download the old package, and manually copy and change permissions (with chmod +x), and it somehow works.

If you know some C++, maybe you can give it a try and compile it.

Thanks for letting me know. I could try it if I could know C++ basics.... I will try to learn C++ if I have time...

Try opening the last package for macOS, and see if the binaries work. Open the file Archive.pax.gz inside the Package and copy the binaries, then change permissions. See if that works.
