abc4mac uses the approach of wrapping abc2ps (and abcmidi) in a basic UI that just allows you to put up a file dialog and then invokes the main of abc2ps with the file as an argument.
On OS X, you can simply compile and run from the command line. I'll put the source for abc4mac up where people can get it - unfortunately my "free" web provider has started cutting me off at 3 GB per month, so I need to find a different place for it... I'll try to do it this weekend (if I get finished doing my taxes...) wil Jack Campin wrote: > > Is it possible to compile and use abcm2ps on a mac ? > > Assuming it's a fairly conventional workstation Unix program: > > Getting it to run under MPW (Apple's development environment, with > a sort of shell for running software developed under Unix) might > not be too hard, except that (a) MPW has a hard-to-learn user > interface that seems equally bizarre whether you're used to Mac or > Unix systems, and (b) it won't help if abcm2ps uses X Windows > primitives extensively. > > Getting it to run as a native application with a standard Mac user > interface would be a lot of work; Mac and Unix libraries are very > different. > > =================== <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/> =================== > > To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: >http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
