Scott,
I did not realize congruity did would install IR commands starting with Pronto
Hex Codes which is my ultimate goal. I was under the impression it was a just
front-end to concordance. Okay, my misunderstanding.
I have tried, without success to get congruity to install on the MAC. No luck.
There was a minor issue in the Makefile, the syntax --mode=755 is not
recognized by the MAC (for instance in mkdir). I just hacked that to replacing
"mode=" with '-m', Now, I believe, it is a python issue and admittedly I am
not a python expert. The version on my MAC was hopelessly old, so I downloaded
the latest version (3.3). However the installation for this download goes into
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/bin
with a symbolic link 'python3' defined to current minor version of version 3.
(Seems weird, seems like that symbolic link should be a Versions/3/ directory.)
This does not bode well for the congruity python script which sets the
interpreter to
#/usr/bin/env python
For better or worse, and apparently worse, there is no /usr/bin/env/ on the
MAC, so I tried hacking the interpreter to point at the 3.3 python interpreter
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/bin/python3
This got me only to the point that python cannot find any of its imports. I am
now in over my head until I get some help or read more about python search
paths.

PS: As an aside, python and I do not get along. In my day job, we distribute
python code to many institutions. It is hard enough keeping up with the
updates, but many times the updates are not even backwardly compatible. With
multiple institutions who have their own multiple clients (these are not PCs on
an individual desks, but large central installations), you cannot have them
constantly updating python just for our needs, cause it is sure to break
someone else (maybe even you, cause a different python application you use
demands a different version). There may be ways to handle this, but the hassle
is just too great for my blood. The python stuff is only a tiny, tiny fraction
of what I do and it absorbs more time than it seems worth. At least gcc
attempts to maintain backward compatibility, so one only has demand a minimum
version, not a specific version. That's a lot easier.
