Build Instructions for Mac #63

Closed IRobL closed 6 years ago

IRobL commented 6 years ago

It's kind of scary to run into a project that only has windows binaries especially when using a mac when you're more comfortable on linux. I have these instructions to share and would take the time to create a PR w/ the author's approval, otherwise having them in the issue tracker should help folks out plenty:

Steps

  1. Install the Apply published Xcode suite, and run at least once so the terms can be agreed to
  2. Install qt, and run the build setup
    $  brew install qt
    $  qmake
    $  make
    $  open qt-box-editor-1.13dev.app/

Great work on this project, btw!
