Re: [Ifeffit] Hephaestus

Yes, This is the case -- as I made the mac installer. The x86 mac cpu version was made by Jeff Terry. I am getting a new macpro notebook this week so I will start working on the installer sometime soon hopefully. I am still a little scared by Jeff's saying it wasn't trivial. Were there a lot of changes necessary? Jeff, could some of these be fed back upstream to Matt? Paul On Feb 22, 2007, at 12:27 PM, Matt Newville wrote:

Have just installed the Ifeffit package (feffit-1.2.9-Mac10.4_horae64pre_pkg.dmg) on my Intel Mac (OS X 10.4.8)... Upon double clicking Hephaestus (as instructed in the readme) i am prompted to choose either X11 graphics or Aquaterm - either way X11 opens and then nothing...Is this a UNIX based program - from the screenshots i guessed it wasn't?

Any ideas why it isn't working?

I'm copying this to the Ifeffit mailing list, as I think someone else may have a better answer than I can give. Hephaestus does require X11, but I think the problem is that the Ifeffit-1.2.9 disk installers are all PPC only.

That is, I think no one has made an installer for Intel Mac.
