Jan 2018 update http://www.ddlab.org/download/ddlab_compiled_2018/ and mirror sites ------------------------------------------------------------------- The following files (.tar.gz) contain the mac executable and GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE The alternative Mac OSX executables (32bit or 64bit) are listed below, ddlabz06_macPowerBook32 OSX 10.4.11 (Motorola) by Andy (andy at ddlab dot org) ddlabz06_macElCapitan64 10.11.15 (XQuartz 2.7.9) (Intel) by Andy (andy at ddlab dot org) ddlabz06_macSnowLeopard64 OSX 10.6.8 (Intel) by José-Manuel (jmgomezuam at gmail dot com) (ddlabz05 versions from April 2017 -- to be updated to ddlabz06 in due course) ddlabz05_macSierra64 OSX 10.12 (Intel) by José-Manuel (jmgomezuam at gmail dot com) Motorola and Intel are incompatible. Use the executable that most closely matches your Mac. 32bit might run on 64bit but not vice-vera. Run DDLab from a terminal in X11, which must be installed. From the directory with the DDLab files, enter the name of the executable preceded by ./ and followed by &, for example ... ./ddlabz06_macElCapitan64 & Alternatively, first change directory to "ddfiles" then enter the name of the executable preceded by ../ and followed by & ../ddlabz06_macElCapitan64 & This will keep files generated by DDLab in the ddfiles subdirectory. Note on missing hash "#" from some mac keyboards: "#" is used for some on-the-fly options, for example, to toggle scrolling of space-time patterns. If "#" is missing from the keyboard, as in "MacBook Retina 2016", it can be made with alt(option)3, the alt or option key and key 3. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can recompile DDLab yourself from the source code using one of the following Makefiles: Makefile_mac_z06 (for most mac systems) or Makefile_mac_ElCapitan_z06 for ElCapitan Makefile_Sierra_mac_z06 for Sierra Makefile_mac_SnowLeopard64_z06 for SnowLeopard Makefile_mac_PowerBook_z06 for PowerBook these Makefiles and the source code, available at http://www.ddlab.org/download/ddlab_code_2018/ and mirror sites. DDLab would appreciate news of alternative compiles. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
